Brave New World
Your rating
Huxley's vision is different from Orwell's: instead of oppression through pain, control comes through pleasure, drugs (soma), and conditioning. Citizens are happy, compliant, and pre-programmed from the womb. It's a terrifying argument about how dystopia doesn't always look like oppression. The world is stable, efficient, and absolutely hollow.
