This is a printing of Aldous Huxley’s “Point Counter Point” printed in 1947. This copy is in near fine condition with crisp, clean pages, minimal fading and bumping to the boards and only faint writing on the front free endpaper.
Huxley’s satirical novel, published in 1928, explores the complexities of interwar intellectual and social life through a series of interconnected characters. The narrative structure employs multiple viewpoints, revealing contrasting perspectives on love, politics, art, and morality. Central to the novel is the tension between emotional impulses and rationalism, embodied in the characters’ varied attitudes toward personal freedom and societal norms. Huxley critiques contemporary values by exposing hypocrisies and the often shallow nature of modern relationships, while also examining the search for meaning in an increasingly fragmented world. The novel ultimately presents a nuanced commentary on the clash between idealism and practicality during a period of cultural transition.
