In the book A Brave New World their are so many references to our world, and it's a bit scary. Some of the things that happen in this world is a bit the same to our world. Some of them come off as a bit disturbing. Even with this, their are still some stuff in this book that seems way too far fetched. In this book, it references a lot of stuff that have a connection or really, just a big relationship to our real world.

In this book, it references some things that are a bit too disturbing, that relate to our world. Take for example this quote on page 31, " We condition the masses to hate the country".
