"Brave New World" by Aldous Huxley is a dystopian novel set in a future world where society is controlled through technological and biological means. In this highly structured and controlled society, individuals are born into predetermined classes and conditioned to accept their roles without questioning authority.

The story revolves around Bernard Marx, an individual who feels out of place in the conformist society, and John "the Savage," a man born outside the controlled world who becomes a symbol of humanity's lost individuality. As the narrative unfolds, it explores themes of technological control, the dehumanizing effects of mass production, and the sacrifice of individuality for societal stability.

Huxley's "Brave New World" serves as a cautionary tale about the dangers of sacrificing personal freedom and genuine human experiences in the pursuit of societal order and technological progress.
