I can't believe that this was the first time that I read this book. It's stunning. I really love the first half, the second half I can take it or leave it.
The introduction of John the Savage was one of my favourite parts. His soul reflects my own in some ways. I found his relationship with his mother similar in some ways to the relationship portrayed in Sexing the Cherry by Jeanette Winterson. Huxley's running social commentary is fantastic. I really enjoyed the discussion of mortality in the book. It's very sad, though.
I give this book 10 tears out of 10. Super good.
