Brave New World pdf epub mobi txt 电子书 下载 2025
Aldous Huxley was born on 26th July 1894 near Godalming, Surrey. He began writing poetry and short stories in his early twenties, but it was his first novel, Crome Yellow (1921), which established his literary reputation. This was swiftly followed by Antic Hay (1923), Those Barren Leaves (1925) and Point Counter Point (1928) - bright, brilliant satires in which Huxley wittily but ruthlessly passed judgement on the shortcomings of contemporary society. For most of the 1920s Huxley lived in Italy and an account of his experiences there can be found in Along the Road (1925). The great novels of ideas, including his most famous work Brave New World (published in 1932 this warned against the dehumanising aspects of scientific and material 'progress') and the pacifist novel Eyeless in Gaza (1936) were accompanied by a series of wise and brilliant essays, collected in volume form under titles such as Music at Night (1931) and Ends and Means (1937). In 1937, at the height of his fame, Huxley left Europe to live in California, working for a time as a screenwriter in Hollywood. As the West braced itself for war, Huxley came increasingly to believe that the key to solving the world's problems lay in changing the individual through mystical enlightenment. The exploration of the inner life through mysticism and hallucinogenic drugs was to dominate his work for the rest of his life. His beliefs found expression in both fiction (Time Must Have a Stop,1944 and Island, 1962) and non-fiction (The Perennial Philosophy, 1945, Grey Eminence, 1941 and the famous account of his first mescalin experience, The Doors of Perception, 1954. Huxley died in California on 22nd November 1963.

Far in the future, the World Controllers have created the ideal society. Through clever use of genetic engineering, brainwashing and recreational sex and drugs all its members are happy consumers. Bernard Marx seems alone harbouring an ill-defined longing to break free. A visit to one of the few remaining Savage Reservations where the old, imperfect life still continues, may be the cure for his distress...
Huxley's ingenious fantasy of the future sheds a blazing light on the present and is considered to be his most enduring masterpiece.

读后感
首先说，看这本书来自neil.postman的《娱乐至死》，后来才知道其与奥威尔的《1984》，扎米亚京的《我们》并称为反乌托邦三部曲，在postman看来《美丽新世界》和《1984》描绘的是两个相反的未来，而在读过此书后，我觉得这种相反反而只是表面上的。内在来看，他们描绘的都是又精...
评分2503年，一个婴儿养育室里。护士们在地板上摆了一堆图书和鲜花，然后把一群长得一摸一样的、8个月大的婴儿放到了地板上。婴儿们看到图书和鲜花，飞快地爬过去，拿起来玩耍。这时候，长官一声令下，护士长启动电路装置，一时间，刺耳的警报响起，地板被通上了电，触电的...
评分与1984相比，这个世界似乎要美好的多，人们不需要压抑自己的欲望，可以尽可能的作乐。是个幸福的世界，但是又很恐怖，因为很多世界观是我们接受不了了，没有父母，没有亲人，没有家庭，没有婚姻，没有爱。人们只是做着自己该做的和想做的。人是被按照需要创在出来的，而且千篇...
评分最初了解到《美丽新世界》，是在初中时读的《科幻世界》。后来读《娱乐至死》，波兹曼不止一次提到本书，促成了我对其阅读的机会。第一次阅读本书是在大学时代，距今也7、8年了。当时的震撼至今难忘，但也留下了诸多困惑和不解。在那时写下的书评最后，我曾写下一连串疑问： “...
评分这些天，痛苦一遍遍地翻腾。在放纵心灵和等待麻木的过程中，我读到了《美丽新世界》。 那不一定是想象中的救赎，但至少带来了安慰。 不想讨论它的反乌托邦涵义和显而易见的政治讽喻，我只知道老赫胥黎穿越74年的时光让我明白孤独和痛苦意味着激情未泯，灵魂仍然品尝得到渴望的...

最后一章啧
评分娱乐致死的评价：Huxley feared that what we love will ruin us. 但是有办法吗，咱们不就是一群成天想着gradient descent的东西嘛....
评分其实我看的是1961年版penguin modern classics那版的，但是豆瓣上找不到，也没有isbn编号，那就。。。
评分应该说赫胥黎在某些方面比奥威尔更高明，虽说总感觉brave new world的世界观有些太明显的漏洞。
评分如果真有那样一个世界——没有疾病，没有痛苦，没有衰老，淡定面对死亡，生命早已被写好，每个人照着既定的线路没有抱怨没有遗憾地走完，这未尝不是好的选择。现实世界不缺乏美好却也充满了残酷，有得必有失，就看你如何权衡。
