    In Aldous Huxley’s 1931 novel‚ Brave New World‚ satire is achieved through symbolism and biblical references. Sarcasm also plays a major role in this novel’s satire.

Huxley’s novel describes a society in which people have pills to wash their problems away‚ Henry Ford is their god‚ and humans are created in a lab rather than naturally. The savage part of the story is filled with self-flagellation
