(Saturday Review) Read more From the Back Cover London life just after World War I, devoid of values and moving headlong into chaos at breakneck speed - Aldous Huxley's Antic Hay, like Hemingway's The Sun Also Rises, portrays a world of lost souls madly pursuing both pleasure and meaning. Fake artists, third-rate poets, pompous critics, pseudo-scientists, con-men, bewildered romantics, cock-eyed futurists - all inhabit this world spinning out of control, as wildly comic as it is disturbingly accurate. In a style that ranges from the lyrical to the absurd, and with characters whose identities shift and change as often as their names and appearances, Huxley has here invented a novel that bristles with life and energy, what the New York Times called "a delirium of sense enjoyment!"

Though best known for Brave New World, he also wrote countless works of fiction, non-fiction, poetry and essays. A humanist, pacifist and satirist, he wrote novels and other works that functioned as critiques of social norms and ideals. Aldous Huxley is often considered a leader of modern thought and one of the most important literary and philosophical voices of the 20th century.

The text appears as if randomly dropped onto the pages, with some pages appearing quite normal, while others have only a short paragraph in the middle or bottom or top of the page. Some of the pages suddenly become double-spaced mysteriously. There is no publisher or copyright information, so I assume some sneaky business has simply pirated the copy via direct retyping or via photocopying from another edition, or even simply cut and pasted text into a new format. I would have returned the book, but was sick and my deadline of May 2nd passed by before I could do it. This is a blot on Amazon and I will be much more careful about what I purchase from them in future. In any case avoid this particular book offering like the plague. It is junk. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 20-something failures to launch from the early 1920's *by J***N on Reviewed in the United States on August 2, 2019* This is not one of Huxley's greatest works, but is interesting. It is set just after WWI and features a group of failed artists, 20-somethings still living with their parents, professional semi-failures and the women they are sleeping with (or trying to) drifting around a London which is in economic recession (what Keynes called "the economic consequences of Winston Churchill"). A good reminder that failure to launch is not a unique 21st century phenomenon. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ An enjoyable look at post-WWI life in London *by R***R on Reviewed in the United States on August 31, 2019* A 4-Star interwar period novel, sometimes humorous but often sad, as the characters try to find their way in the big city: loving, schmoozing, chasing dreams, and recognizing failures. A fine, likable book about a turbulent period. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sn/products/34227658-antic-hay](https://www.desertcart.sn/products/34227658-antic-hay) --- *Product available on Desertcart Senegal* *Store origin: SN* *Last updated: 2026-05-17*
