Brave New World

In Huxley's engineered World State, people are grown in hatcheries, sorted into castes, and kept content with a steady supply of pleasure and a mood-lifting drug called soma. When Bernard Marx brings a young man raised outside the system back to London, the collision between the two worlds exposes what this comfortable society has given up. First published in 1932, it remains one of the defining dystopian novels.
