Informazioni su questo ebook
Antic Hay and nbsp;is a and nbsp;comic novel and nbsp;by and nbsp;Aldous Huxley, published in 1923. The story takes place in and nbsp;London, and depicts the aimless or self-absorbed cultural elite in the sad and turbulent times following the end of and nbsp;World War I.
The book follows the lives of a diverse cast of characters in and nbsp;bohemian, artistic and and nbsp;intellectual and nbsp;circles. It clearly demonstrates Huxley's ability to dramatise intellectual debates in fiction and has been called a "novel of ideas" rather than people.
It expresses a mood of mournful disenchantment and reinforced Huxley's reputation as an iconoclast. The book was condemned for its cynicism and for its immorality because of its open debate on sex. The novel was banned for a while in Australia and burned in Cairo.
Superficially the story follows one Theodore Gumbril in his invention of Gumbril's Patent Small-Clothes, trousers which contain a and nbsp;pneumatic and nbsp;cushion in the seat.
