Brave New World by Aldous Huxley vs. 1984 by George Orwell.
Both "1984" and "Brave New World" were written to portray a despotic future vision of society. Both predict a time when the world is ruled by the elite few who use oppression and totalitarianism to control the masses.
Whereas Huxley was concerned with what scientific advances could do to society in "Brave New World" such as soma, a drug which would make one a bubbling happy zombie; conditioning such as hypnosis in sleep and other such impressionable things at a young age; and whatever pleasure one could want to keep their minds of anything that might be more important; Orwell seemed more concerned with what effect the destruction of language (propaganda, ‘newspeak’, ‘doublethink’) would have on the world in "1984".
