Brave New World

As the fifteen or so “regular visitors” to the site have noticed, I have a new layout for the site. I was getting tired of the orange, and thought I’d switch to a cleaner template. Hopefully it will make for an increase in return visitors. I certainly enjoy it more.

The homework assignment for October is to read Aldous Huxley’s Brave New World. Come November, we’ll discuss how the hippies of today used Brave New World to shape their views of the way the world should be run. Every couple of years I think it’s important to re-read this and other works like it that show a Utopian future, remembering that they were written as satire or warnings. By the way, watching the movie does not count for our purposes.

Anyway, read, read, read, and we’ll discuss in November, while finding time to work on your National Novel Writing Month Novel and work and sleep and everything else that you usually do. After all, what’s an extra 1,700 words each and every day?
