"Brilliant. . . . This rip-roaring graphic retelling of the Aldous Huxley classic brings to mind Fritz Lang, Spielberg and vintage comics. . . . This is a book that will keep your bedside light burning long into the night." -- The Guardian

Available for the first time as a graphic novel, "one of the most prophetic dystopian works of the twentieth century" ( Wall Street Journal ), Aldous Huxley's revered sci fi classic , adapted and illustrated by Fred Fordham, the artist behind the graphic novel adaptation of To Kill A Mockingbird.

In Aldous Huxley's darkly satiric yet chillingly prescient work of speculative fiction imagining a "utopian" future, humans are genetically bred, socially indoctrinated, and pharmaceutically anesthetized to passively uphold an authoritarian ruling order--all at the cost of their freedom, full humanity, and perhaps also their souls. Originally published in 1932, this dystopian classic has enthralled and terrified millions of readers for decades and now it has been reborn for a new age.

In Brave New World: A Graphic Novel, Fred Fordham's aesthetically reimagined literary graphic novel brings Huxley's powerful work to life. Fordham has captured the surreal imagery and otherworldly backdrop of the story through brilliantly rendered illustrations. His singular artistic vision and impeccable attention to detail depicts the work as never before, introducing it to a new generation of readers in a fresh and compelling way.

Huxley's enduring classic is a reflection and a warning of the age in which it was written yet remains frighteningly relevant today.

This graphic novel edition translates Huxley's prophetic vision into a powerful visual experience.
