Brave New World v. 1984 June 8‚ 2011 It is no question that both Huxley and Orwell were displeased with our societal norms by their predictions in Brave New World and 1984. However‚ the two famous novels could not have differed more in their visions of tomorrow. Huxley portrays a nation of pleasure addicted‚ mindless beings merely existing. Orwell illustrated such a strict regime that the pursuit of knowledge would be banned and our voices would be silenced. Imagine living in a world without

This compare and contrast essay on Aldous Huxley and George Orwell’s philosophies and prose. Both authors created fictional worlds; Orwell’s focuses on government oppression‚ and Huxley’s focuses on controlling people by flooding society with pleasurable things. Both authors describe a society that is futuristic‚ however‚ they both have descriptions that mirror our world today. Huxley created a world where people were trained to love certain things.
