Time Must Have a Stop by Aldous Huxley

“My mind is so busy thinking about values that I don't have time to experience them.”
One night I was out with friends, and for some reason we started talking about books, one of my friends told me he had discovered the writing of Aldous Huxley and loved everything he had read until that moment, so that memory stayed with me, until a few months later, when I went to the book fair, and saw "Time Must Have a Stop" by that same author, I was intrigued by the tittle, and decided to get it, I'm really glad I did.
This was a work I had never heard of before, and written by an author which I had never read before. I must say I was pleased with what I was given, it is beautifully written but the writing itself is not for everyone, it is a hard writing filled with hard words, not like most books I read, which I liked the change, but it was a harder read.
This book is a combination of philosophical themes portraited or hidden in a novel form. I must admit that the ammount of topics discussed in this book are quite astonishing. In my opinion one of the most well written books, that most certainly desserves to be read.
“All men are born with an equal and inalienable right to disillusionment. So, until they choose to waive that right, it's three cheers for Technological Progress and a College Education for everybody.”
