When Lenina and Bernard visit a savage reservation, we experience how Utopia can destroy humanity. Cloning, feel-good drugs, anti-aging programs, and total social control through politics, programming, and media: has Aldous Huxley accurately predicted our future? With a storyteller's genius, he weaves these ethical controversies in a compelling narrative that dawns in the year 632 A.F. (After Ford, the deity). When Lenina and Bernard visit a savage reservation, we experience how Utopia can destroy humanity.

Michael York should stick to the stage and leave narration to the pros.

I loved it. It was a light and flowing read yet made me think. I like that after finishing the book I feel like I need more reading material and time to think it through. For me, it discussed ideas without exhausting them.
Regarding the narration - at first I was puzzled at a few scenes, where I found a character (Lenina) repulsive due to the narration (I would of felt differently towards her in certain scenes under a different narration). Yet, after thinking it through I realized that it brought up the exact set of feelings it should have. Making this narration brilliant in my opinion.

Historia4.5 out of 5 stars 260
Candide and his tutor Pangloss travel the globe trying to follow the philosophy "All is for the best in this, the best of all possible worlds". However, they are stung and let down at every turn, being robbed, tortured, and ridiculed, amongst other trials. On hearing about their often disasterous travels, a listener feels unfortunately less than empathetic, and can't help themselves laughing out loud at this very funny account of the trail our optimistic travellers take.

Rather read this one.

I found the narrator and the book very good. However, The book is so intense I wished to understand every word, which I don't insist upon in other cases, and since English is not my mother tongue I rather read this one to fully enjoy it.
