However, these accounts are just relics of who the person was at one point in time. These memories can be interpreted as inaccurate accounts compromised by bias and the effects of time. Life changes people and sometimes it just takes time to see those effects. Even if that weren’t the case…

Aldous Huxley’s Brave New World contains, at its heart, a fundamental question that is a point of contention amongst readers: would it be more beneficial if we as a population strived to create a civilization that mirrors that of the society found in Brave New World?
