Those Barren Leaves by Aldous Huxley

Those Barren Leaves by Aldous Huxley

In a renovated castle set above the blue of the sea, the Junoesque figure of Mrs Aldwinkle moves among her guests. These include a poet who earns his living editing "The Rabbit Fancier's Gazette", a sophisticated if somewhat jaded Don Juan, and a pair of charmingly innocent lovers.

Aldous Huxley was born in 1894 near Godalming, Surrey. He began writing poetry and short stories in his early twenties, but it was his first novel, ‘Crome Yellow’ (1921), which established his literary reputation. This was swiftly followed by ‘Antic Hay (1923), ‘Those Barren Leaves’ (1925) and ‘Point Counter Point ‘(1928) – bright, brilliant satires in which Huxley wittily passed judgement on the shortcomings of contemporary society.
