Brave New World

A masterpiece in the language of our time: about the ideal society, brainwashing, and happiness through drugs. In 1932, one of the greatest utopias of the 20th century was published. Here, happiness is administered like a drug. Sex and consumption sweep away all concerns. Reproduction factories have solved the problem of procreation. It is the best of all worlds, an ideal society - until someone looks behind the scenes: Alpha Bernard Marx, driven by a longing for freedom, visits one of the few reserves where the old imperfect life is still lived. This could heal him of his discomfort - or perhaps not. A prophetic story of lasting relevance, translated by Uda Strätling and narrated by Matthias Brandt. (6 CDs, running time: approx. 8h 2).
