On an imaginary island of Pali there is a clash between two ways of understanding life and human relationships. When journalist Will Farnaby landed on the island, he came into contact with customs, rites, religion and an attitude towards life. From this contrast, a reflection on the values that Farnaby embodies, those of the Western world, is easily derived and he begins to question them.
Autorenporträt
Aldous Huxley trained at Eton and Oxford, made his name with his first predominantly satirical novels, but the success and critical attention came to him with Contrapunto, which was followed by Brave New World, perhaps his most famous work and without a doubt the most disturbing. He spent time writing film scripts in Hollywood, until he returned to the forefront with novels such as The Genius and the Goddess, Time Must Stop, Mono and Essence and The Island. He is also the author of influential essays, including The Perennial Philosophy, The Doors of Perception, New Visit to a Happy World or those gathered in If My Library Burns Tonight.
