Crome Yellow
ISBN: 9781440411526 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 210 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Crome Yellow is the first novel by British author Aldous Huxley. It was published in 1921. In the book, Huxley satirises the fads and fashions of the time. It is the witty story of a house party at 'Crome' (a lightly veiled Garsington) where there is a gathering of "bright young things." We hear some of the history of the house from Henry Wimbush, its owner and self-appointed historian; apocalypse is prophesied, virginity is lost and inspirational aphorisms are gained in a trance. Our hero, Denis Stone, tries to capture it all in poetry and is disappointed in love.

Crome Yellow
ISBN: 9781543236033 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 174 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The book contains a brief pre-figuring of Huxley's later novel, Brave New World. Mr. Scogan, one of the characters, describes an -impersonal generation- of the future that will -take the place of Nature's hideous system. In vast state incubators, rows upon rows of gravid bottles will supply the world with the population it requires. The family system will disappear; society, sapped at its very base, will have to find new foundations; and Eros, beautifully and irresponsibly free, will flit like a gay butterfly from flower to flower through a sunlit world.-

Zeit der Oligarchen
ISBN: 9783446287235 / Niemiecki / Twarda / 96 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. Mit gespenstischer Klarsicht nahm Aldous Huxley schon 1946 unsere Gegenwart vorweg: Durch technologischen Fortschritt konzentriert sich politische Macht plötzlich in den Händen weniger. In Zeiten gesellschaftlichen Umbruchs haben Nationalismus und geopolitische Machtspiele Hochkonjunktur, während Demokratie und Solidarität leiden. Stilistisch brillant beschreibt Aldous Huxley das aufziehende Zeitalter einer Tech-Oligarchie - einer Welt, in der Boy Gangster in den Regierungen sitzen und das Recht des Stärkeren die Freiheit aller bedroht. Huxleys prophetische Intervention war 80 Jahre lang...

Complete Essays: Aldous Huxley, 1936-1938, Volume IV
ISBN: 9781566633949 / Angielski / Twarda / 2001 / 416 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In this fourth volume of a projected six, Huxley registers his deep misgivings about the course of history in the late 1930s as the world moved toward a second global war. Many of his essays reflect his continuing interest in the conventions of popular culture as well as the philosophy of science and history, particularly as they inform developments in art and politics. But his larger concerns oscillate between empirical science and the particulars of social history, on the one hand, and his need for a grounding of absolute truth that would transcend both. His critique of politics and the...

Aldous Huxley's Early Writings including (complete and unabridged) Crome Yellow, The Burning Wheel, The Defeat of Youth and Other Poems and Mortal Coi
ISBN: 9781781394861 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 336 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Crome Yellow, is Huxley's first novel, published in 1921. It is a British manor satire where almost nothing happens - even less than normal for this genre. The characters are immaculately presented and manage to express immense profundity in tiny conversations. The writing is wonderful and each turn of phrase is a gem. Huxley's genius shines through the book. It is hilarious, wry and erudite. The Burning Wheel is Huxley's first collection of Poetry, published in 1916 before any of his novels. He was not allowed to fight in the Great War due to his very poor eyesight and so it is unsurprising...
