A dystopian novel by Aldous Huxley, exploring themes of immortality, aging, and the pursuit of eternal youth through scientific means, often with grotesque and morally compromising consequences. The story follows a wealthy American industrialist obsessed with extending his lifespan.
I read a this little novel by Altus Huxley for many a summer dies a swan.
