Along the Road by Aldous Huxley
Huxley reveals his thoughts on the subject of travelling in general and tourism in particular. He compares walking to motoring, looks for the traveller's-eye view in literature, weighs up his selection of guidebooks, analyzes the effects of sunglasses on the landscape, dissects our attitudes towards town and country and recomends some reading matter for a journey.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.
