"Aldous Huxley was a famous Novelist from England, who lived between July 26, 1894 and November 22, 1963.
Aldous Leonard Huxley was an English writer, who in retrospect, is best known for the dystopian future satire Brave New World (Brave New World) from 1932.
He moved to the U.S. in 1937, to escape the anticipated war in Europe, and lived in Los Angeles until his death in 1963. He wrote in most genres: novels, short stories, poems, travelogues, essays, prose and screenplay. In the interwar period, he wrote "cynical fable about how modern psychology and science had broken down traditional values ​​and led to rootlessness among the intellectuals." From the late 20th century, he writes of "large ethical seriousness and [affected] by his interest in mysticism and parapsychology...."
