Uh. I think I thought he was someone else. I read this because it has the same name as the book of the month for the “Everyone has read this but me” group. I thought it was an interesting coincidence.
I find Aldous Huxley extremely boring. Sorry. I said I wouldn't use that word, but - there it is. Maybe these essays might have been more exciting 60 years ago - it's hard to believe we have lived in the 21st century for over two decades... right now it reminds me of one of my dad's boyhood books, about science and future and stuff like that, written in the 40s. They thought we'd have underwater tubes to transport people from Europe to USA. I think I'd like that. Glass tubes with glass ceiling train cars, so that one can look at the masses of water above... and then they could be making catastrophe movies about the tube cracking...
