Bag om Limbo (1920)

Limbo is a novel written by Aldous Huxley and published in 1920. The book tells the story of a young man named Denis Stone who is struggling to find his place in the world. He is an aspiring poet who is torn between his desire for artistic expression and his need for financial stability. Denis finds himself in a state of limbo, unable to fully commit to either his artistic pursuits or a more practical career. He becomes involved with a group of bohemian artists and intellectuals, but also seeks the approval of his more conventional family and friends. Throughout the novel, Huxley explores themes of identity, creativity, and the clash between tradition and modernity. He also delves into the complexities of human relationships, particularly romantic love and the tension between passion and practicality. Limbo is considered an early work of Huxley's, and while it may not be as well-known as some of his later books, it still showcases his literary talent and philosophical insights. The novel is a thought-provoking exploration of the human condition that continues to resonate with readers today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
