Brave New World Appears As a Utopia All over the world, people complain about how lousy and miserable some aspects of their lives are, wishing they lived in a paradise where everything felt stable. The novel Brave New World by Aldous Huxley clearly demonstrates elements of a utopia, despite the number of people believing the book displays a dystopia.

Lenina Crowne from Brave New World evidently displays equality from a quote “And how can you talk like that about not wanting to be a part of the social body? After all, everyone works for everyone else. We can’t do without any one. Even Epsilons...” (Huxley 81).

The DHC is declaring that when he was waiting for that girl the boy feels a consequence of emotion having him waste so much of his life because of emotion.
