Brave New World / Brave New World Revisited
by Aldous Huxley
Fascinatingly, Huxley's dystopia differs greatly with Orwell's in the method of control. Orwell's is a dictatorship run by fear; Huxley's state is controlled by pleasure. If you keep people delirious and happy, they won't need to think. Huxley argues that his is the more probable dystopia for that reason, and I have to agree, though I doubt it will be tried.
While the plot of this one is interesting, BNW is a book of ideas. Don't expect too much characterization here. The scene with the Savage and Mond is breathtaking and brilliant.
