About this audiobook
This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice.
Craving wit and escape? Join Denis Stone, a poet with a bruised ego, on a weekend getaway to Crome, a grand English estate. Prepare to be swept into a whirlwind of eccentric characters: artists, intellectuals, and socialites all brimming with ideas and pronouncements. As conversations crackle with wit, philosophy clashes with frivolity. Denis, yearning for the captivating Anne, finds himself tangled in a web of unspoken desires and intellectual one-upmanship. Will he find love or lose himself in the labyrinth of Crome Yellow? Dive into Aldous Huxley's dazzling social satire and discover a world where laughter meets longing, and appearances barely conceal the human comedy beneath.
Aldous Huxley
Aldous Huxley (1894-1963) was a prominent and successful English writer. Throughout his career he wrote over fifty books, and was nominated seven times for the Nobel Prize in Literature. Huxley wrote his first book, Crome Yellow, when he was seventeen years old, which was described by critics as a complex social satire. Huxley was both an avid humanist and pacifist and many of these ideals are reflected in his writing. Often controversial, Huxley’s views were most evident in the best-selling dystopian novel, Brave New World. The publication of Brave New Worldin 1931 rattled many who read it. However, the novel inspired many writers, Kurt Vonnegut in particular, to describe the book’s characters as foundational to the genre of science fiction. With much of his work attempting to bridge the gap between Eastern and Western beliefs, Aldous Huxley has been hailed as a writer ahead of his time.
