"Brave New World," published in 1932, is a dystopian novel by English author Aldous Huxley. Set in a futuristic World State, the narrative centers around a society where people are engineered through artificial wombs and predetermined roles. The society is characterized by advanced technology, widespread use of a pacifying drug called Soma, and a lack of personal freedom and individuality. The story follows Bernard Marx, who is discontented with his life and societal norms, and explores themes such as consumerism, technology, freedom, and the nature of happiness.
