Description

Michael York reads Aldous Huxley's modern classic. Cloning, feel-good drugs, anti-aging programs, and total social control through politics, programming, and media - has Aldous Huxley accurately predicted our twenty-first century existence? With a storyteller's genius, he weaves these ethical controversies in a compelling narrative that dawns in the year 632 A.F. (After Ford the Deity). Huxley paints a startling and hallucinatory picture of a civilisation that imagines itself free, but that in reality is mindlessly (and happily) captive to the ruling class.
