Brave New World

In society, conformity is seen as the only way to survive. In Audis Huxley’s Brave New World, Bernard struggles with this concept as he sees the flaws within his society. It is this inner battle that gives the work its central message. We, as society, cannot obtain perfection without the loss of our humanity. Huxley uses the inward questioning of Bernard and John as the example of society destroying those who fail to conform. Through John and Bernard, Huxley is able to show that in a utopian society we will lose our selves as individuals as we conform to fit into society’s shackles.
