I read it for honors English in middle or high school… It is about a futuristic society where people are born into specific categories and specific jobs. The main thing I remember is that babies are ‘programmed’ by having specific information played to them over and over again.

I believe people eat by taking a pill, there is also birth control involved and I believe *** is pretty much viewed as a recreation. There is a sort of love story or relationship involved between a man and a woman. I believe this was written between 1920s and 1960s…

It is a really interesting novel and a classic I would like to read again. I thought it was 1984 but it isn’t (even though I decided to go ahead and read this too - several pretty interesting parallels to today’s society). Anyway if you know what novel I am talking about please let me know!
YES!!! Great!! I am so happy you could remember it! NOw I am going to check it out! :D!!!

I know I am crazy but I need to read it again!

Thx!
