Welcome to New London. Everybody is happy here.
Our perfect society achieves peace and stability by dispensing with monogamy, privacy, money, family and history itself. Now everyone belongs. You can be happy too. All you need to do is take your Soma pills.
This is the brave new world of Aldous Huxley's deeply sinister and prophetic novel, a society based on maximum pleasure and complete surveillance - no matter the cost.
