Lenina Crowne

In his mind the singing words seemed to change their tone. They had mocked him through his misery and remorse, mocked him with how hideous a note of cynical derision! Fiendishly laughing, they had insisted on the low squalor, the nauseous ugliness of the nightmare. Now, suddenly, they trumpeted a call to arms. "O brave new world!" Miranda was proclaiming the possibility of loveliness, the possibility of transforming even the nightmare into something fine and noble. "O brave new world!" It was a challenge, a command.

I'm writing my MA thesis on Aldous Huxley's Brave New World and every damn time I read about Bernard and Helmholtz, I always imagine them eventually falling in love with each other on that island they get sent to (Iceland?) and living a happy life in a cottage reading books and learning how to live like a "savage". (I'm imagining Bernard as Harry Lloyd - I KNOW HE'S SUPPOSED TO BE SHORT BUT I LOVED HARRY AS BERNARD IN THE 2020 SERIES I'M SO SORRY (no, I'm not) - and Helmholtz as Andrew Garfield). I'm planning to write a fanfic on it :')
