Dans grotesc

by Aldous Huxley, Mihaela Negrila (Translator)

Overview

Satul de cariera de pedagog de scoala, unde are senzatia ca isi indobitoceste elevii cu fraze sforaitoare, si entuziasmat de proiectul pantalonilor sai pneumatici, tanarul Theodore Gumbril pleaca sa-si caute norocul in capitala. Dar Londra postbelica pare sa fi devenit o lume lipsita de valori, cuprinsa de o adevarata febra a hedonismului si populata de personaje grotesti - pictori ratati, poetastri inflacarati, critici pomposi, savanti mediocri si muze nazuroase.

About the Author

Aldous Huxley (1894–1963) was an English novelist, poet, essayist, and dramatist famous for his dystopian 1932 book Brave New World, set in a prescient, futuristic London and long a staple of middle–school curricula. Huxley was greatly concerned about the future of humanity and was often referred to as a humanist, although, with age, he became more focused on spirituality. By the end of his life, Huxley was widely acknowledged as one of the preeminent intellectuals of his era and was nominated for the Nobel Prize in Literature in seven separate years.
