Sound vs. Sound

Aldous Huxley is one of the initiators of the genre called "literature of thought" in world literature. Huxley is a writer who is knowledgeable on many subjects, from the thyroid gland of sheep to the totems of Native Americans, from the depletion of phosphorus from the earth to the finest details of Mozart's music. It is obvious that in the novels of such an author, the idea will outweigh the other elements of the novel. The people created by Huxley are often like spokespersons of his own views or thoughts. With a nester in one hand and a notebook in the other, he performs masterful surgeries on the people he creates, while keeping notes with scientific meticulousness. Meanwhile, the author's great power of observation and sarcasm cannot be overlooked. In Voice Against Voice, there are various people, various situations, and various opinions that merge with each other like the fusion of various melodies in a piece of music. The real innovation of Voice Against Voice, perhaps Huxley's most famous novel, is that it is not based on one or two people like traditional novels, but on fifteen to twenty people who are closely or distantly related to each other and each of whom has approximately the same importance in the eyes of the novelist. is to be. Most of these people are middle or upper class intellectuals who have lost hope and are struggling because they are bored and do not know what to believe in and what values to choose a direction for themselves. Voice Against Voice is one of the most famous and important examples of social panorama novels in world literature, with its intellectual framework and depth of observation.
