    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.
