>>	Anonymous Mon Jul 2 22:18:50 2018 No.11404830 Bad by itself because it reads like le wrong generation meme. If you read it with Huxley's other books, especially Island, you get a more nuanced idea of what Huxley meant.

>>	Anonymous Mon Jul 2 22:24:30 2018 No.11404851 It's conceptually very interesting more than good as a novel, I think. It's mandatory reading though so get started.
