any 1 here read brave new world by aldous huxley? is it good?

It's fantastic! I don't want to say anything other than that. I'm afraid I'd spoil something, however small.

Oh and while reading the book, I found it fun to to draw connections between the characters' names and those of several people in history whose contributions to philosophy are reflected in the book. Not necessary or anything, but intersting. A few of them I had to search for and read up on. It really helped in discovering what Huxley's influences were in writing the book.

I read recently that it is being made into a film and with Ridley Scott at the helm it's sure to be much better than previous efforts. Though I'm sceptical about it being adapted to film, it's certainly in capable hands.
