Una mirada pesimista al futuro. Aunque fue escrita en 1932, la brillante novela futurista de Aldous Huxley (1894-1963) aún es considerada como una de la más acertadas y pesimistas miradas al futuro. El título, derivado de una cita shakesperiana, es irónico, porque ese mundo de pesadilla donde la deshumanización es completa, tiene de todo menos de feliz. Lo sorprendente es que además de desarrollar las tesis del autor sobre lo que nos espera, es que se trata de una fantasía del mayor interés, cuyo argumento se sigue ansiosamente y que trae sorpresas en cada momento. HA sido considerada como una de las novelas más importantes del siglo XX y esta edición ayuda a comprender porqué.

A pessimistic look to the future. Though it was written in 1932, the brilliant futurist novel by Aldous Huxley (1984-1963) is still considered to be one of the most accurate and pessimistic looks to the future. The title, derived from a Shakespearian quotation, is ironic because the world that he describes is a nightmare, where dehumanization is complete and it has everything but happiness. The surprising fact is that in addition to developing the author’s thesis and what is waiting ahead for us, it is also a fantasy of major interest, and its plot is anxiously followed and carries surprises every moment. It has been considered to be one of the most important novels of the 20th century and this edition helps to understand why.
