Antic Hay by Aldous Huxley
When Theodore Gumbril hits upon the notion of designing a type of pneumatic trouser to ease the discomfort of the sedentary life, he decides the time has come to leave his position as housemaster in a boys' public school and seek his fortune in the metropolis.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.
