Point Counter Point.

Presentation copy inscribed by the author on the half-title page "For Deci Mellin With good wishes Aldous Huxley 1953." Near fine in a near fine dust jacket. Point Counter Point's title is a reference to the flow of arguments in a debate and a series of these exchanges tell the story. Instead of a single central plot there are a number of interlinked story lines and recurring themes as in musical "counterpoint". As a roman a clef many of the characters are based on real people most of whom Huxley knew personally such as D. H. Lawrence Katherine Mansfield Sir Oswald Mosley Nancy Cunard and John Middleton Murry and Huxley is depicted as the novel's novelist Philip Quarles. It was named by Modern Library as one of the 100 greatest novels of the twentieth century. The Modern Library hardcover books

Huxley departs from Bentham's vision of the efficient prison and discusses the phenomenon of the panopticon. Ahead of his time this same architectural scheme shared by hospitals prisons and schools would be heavily criticized by Michel Foucalt in his controversial Discipline and Punish. Piranesi's etchings exhibit an almost attractively gothic approach to prison architecture. <br/><br/> Trianon Press hardcover books
