Synopsis
Aldous Huxley (1894-1963), novelista, ensayista, crítico y poeta inglés, nieto de Thomas y hermano de Julian. Nació en Godalming, Surrey, y estudió en las universidades de Eton y Oxford. Trabajó en varios periódicos y publicó cuatro libros de poesía antes de la aparición de su primera novela, Los escándalos de Crome (1921). Las novelas Heno antiguo (1923) y Contrapunto (1928), que ilustran el clima nihilista de la década de 1920, y Un mundo feliz (1932), una visión deshumanizada y utópica del futuro, le hicieron famoso. Durante gran parte de esta época vivió en Italia y Francia. En 1937 emigró a Estados Unidos. Entre sus más de 45 libros destacan los de ensayo, Un Pilatos burlón (1926), Mañana y mañana y mañana (1956), Nueva visita a un mundo feliz (1958) y Literatura y ciencia (1963). Otras novelas son Ciego en Gaza (1936), Viejo muere el cisne (1939), Mono y esencia (1948) y La isla (1962). Huxley también escribió crítica científica, filosófica y social, con obras importantes como El arte de ver (1932), La filosofía perenne (1946) y Los demonios de Loudon (1952). Se interesó mucho por el misticismo y la parapsicología. Las puertas de la percepción (1954) y su continuación, Cielo e infierno (1956), tratan de sus experiencias con drogas alucinógenas.
