Similar in theme to his most well-known work Brave New World, Aldous Huxley’s Ape and Essence is a work of dystopian fiction that looks to critique the rise of global warfare in the modern age. Told in two parts, the novel opens in 1948 with the discovery of a screenplay by two movie industry moguls, who then set out on a journey to find the work’s author, William Tallis. The second half of the novel is dedicated to the screenplay itself, launching the reader into a futuristic Los Angeles that has been ravaged by the events of World War III. Vivid in its imagining of a world marked by barbarism and depravity, Ape and Essence offers a sharp critique of the brutal aftermath that war can bring aboutthus perfectly representing Huxley’s now acclaimed satirical style. Harper Perennial Classics brings great works of literature to life in digital format, upholding the highest standards in ebook production and celebrating reading in all its forms.
