  <default_description>Antic Hay is one of Aldous Huxley's earlier novels, &amp; like them is primarily a novel of ideas involving conversations that disclose viewpoints rather than establish characters; its polemical theme unfolds against the backdrop of London's post-war nihilistic Bohemia. This is Huxley at his biting, brilliant best, a novel, loud with derisive laughter, which satirically scoffs at all conventional morality &amp; at stuffy people everywhere, a novel that's always charged with excitement.</default_description>

    <body><![CDATA[One senses that Huxley was aiming for a little mordant social satire when he wrote this book, to capture the Zeitgeist while landing a few deft jabs at British society in the aftermath of World War I. But &quot;Antic Hay&quot; is a clunky, sorry mess, whose primary virtue is its brevity. Heavyhanded...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/28242037">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[I usually reference Huxley for philosophy, but I gained more of social economy and cultural commentary from this novel. It's tiny and compact and sweet. Huxley uses the anti-hero canon (in the form of Gumbril Junior) as a perfect foil to the waning, dissolute gilt of post WWI Britain.

    <body><![CDATA[I read this book because Lois Gordon's excellent biography of Nancy Cunard cites it.  Huxley apparently had a brief liason with Cunard and then made her a character in this book.  I wish I could recognize the other players, all of whom were given absurd and suggestive names in Antic Hay.
