We have become a society dependent on technology and a slave to pleasurable experiences. These were the epitomic fears of Huxley. When he wrote Brave New World back in the early 1930’s, Huxley was acting as wise sage and fortune teller. He looked around him, and he saw the very early stages of the “utopia” he created in Brave New World. Now, in the 21st century, about eighty years after Brave New World was published, the “early stages” have advanced quite considerably to a point that I would not call the full extent of Huxley’s vision, but rather a point very close to it.

I'm quite proud of this for my conclusion paragraph on a high school essay.
