Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. No Jacket. 1st Edition. Point Counter Point by Aldous Huxley, orange cloth with gilt spine lettering, 1st edition. Published by Chatto & Windus, London, 1928. Aldous Huxley's lifelong concern with the dichotomy between passion and reason finds its fullest expression both thematically and formally in his masterpiece Point Counter Point. By presenting a vision of life in which diverse aspects of experience are observed simultaneously, Huxley characterizes the symptoms of "the disease of the modern man" in the manner of a composer--themes and characters are repeated, altered slightly, and played off one another in a tone that is at once critical and sympathetic. First published in 1928, Huxley's satiric view of intellectual life in the '20s is populated with characters based on such celebrities as D.H. Lawrence, Katherine Mansfield, Nancy Cunard, and John Middleton Murry, as well as Huxley himself. "externally very good, minor marks, spots, edge rubbing, name inside, foxing spots first and last few pages and page edges, otherwise clean and tight".
