This first novel by Aldous Huxley was published in 1921. Huxley does an excellent job of satirizing the fashion and fads of the period. The setting is a house named Crome where a group of witty young people has gathered for a house party. Love, virginity lost, apocalypse phrophesied, and a trance are just part of this entertaining book.

One of the greatest prose writers and social commentators of the 20th century, Aldous Huxley here introduces us to a delightfully cynical, comic and severe group of artists and intellectuals engaged in the most free-thinking and modern kind of talk imaginable.
ALDOUS HUXLEY (18941963) was an English writer who spent the latter part of his life in the United States. Though best known for Brave New World, he also wrote countless works of fiction, non-fiction, poetry and essays. A humanist, pacifist and satirist, he wrote novels and other works that functioned as critiques of social norms and ideals. Aldous Huxley is often considered a leader of modern thought and one of the most important literary and philosophical voices of the 20th century.
