"Brave New World is as sparkling, as provocative, as brilliant...as the day it was published. Its prophetic voice has remained surprisingly contemporary, both in its forecasts and its general tone of semi-serious alarm."
-- Martin Green, introduction to Harper paperback edition

The Audio Partners Publishing Corporation is proud to announce the publication of the only unabridged recording of this important classic available to retail markets. The New York Times named Brave New World as one of the 100 best-selling books of the 20th century, and it is required reading in many schools. On April 19, NBC broadcast an original film adaptation, starring Peter Gallagher and Leonard Nimoy.

Huxley's tale is compelling today because the Brave New World he vividly described seems closer and closer to becoming a reality. Michael York's outstanding reading brings the original story to life and highlights the many parallels between our world and Huxley's Utopian world.

Cloning, feel-good drugs, anti-aging programs, and total social control through politics, programming, and media-the philosophical and ethical controversies brought about by science and technology have never been more urgent. Has Aldous Huxley accurately predicted our future?

Aldous Huxley (1894-1963) was born in England but resided in California from 1937 on. His best known works include: Brave New World, Chrome Yellow, Point Counter Point, and The Doors of Perception, to be published by The Audio Partners in Fall 1998.

Michael York has delighted audiences in Britain and the U.S. with his talents on the screen and the stage, ranging from plays by Shakespeare and Tennessee Williams to film comedies with Leslie Nielson and Beverly D'Angelo. He has also recorded over 50 audiobooks, including the Grammy-nominated Treasure Island.
