Crome Yellow

Bag om Crome Yellow

"Ah, that's because you don't know what it's like to have faith. You've no idea how amusing and exciting life becomes when you do believe. All that happens means something; nothing you do is ever insignificant."-Mrs. Wimbush, Crome Yellow (1921) by Aldous HuxleyCrome Yellow (1921) is Aldous Huxley's first novel, set in an English home dubbed Crome, with characters based on real people. Protagonist Denis attends a house party at the title location filled with memorable guests, ranging from an author who produces 1,500 words per hour to a flapper who is shockingly overt by the day's standards. What ensues is a masterfully told satire, revered by F. Scott Fitzgerald and Huxley's other contemporaries, one that has stood the test of time with its relatable themes.
