Lenina Crowne, the only female protagonist, differs from her male counterparts in that her unorthodox actions are unintentional while Helmholtz Watson, Bernard Marx, and John the Savage are aware of their differences and individuality among the rest of society, Lenina never acknowledges her own. “The bruises, the cuts were still bleeding but it was not for pain that he sobbed it was because he was all alone…” (Huxley 136) John was driven out and left as an outcast to the society he was raised in, later on he decided to starve himself for 5 days then head to the mountains to dream of his sacred animal.The majority of the main characters in Aldous Huxley’s dystopian novel Brave New World make conscious decisions to rebel against the World State that controls them and eventually suffer the consequences of such decisions.
Years later John and other kids were on the way to kiva, to become men but john was held back by some older men and wasn’t allowed to go he had been chased away with a rainfall of rocks. “Remorseless, treacherous, lecherous… the word repeated and repeated themselves in his head” (Huxley 133) John wanted to kill pope, which he tried and failed to do, Pope just laughed it off and told John to go. The book had given words to describe John’s hatred for Pope which made his hatred for pope grow even more. John had recieved a present from Pope (there’s a squiggle above the ‘e’ but I don’t know how to put it there) “It was a thick book and looked very old… the book was called The Complete Works of William Shakespeare” (Huxley 131) (Pope is also someone that Linda had been seeing).
It was the women of the village beating Linda, who had no restraint performing vigorous activity with their men. “He came back to the house and heard angry voices in the bedroom they were women’s voices… suddenly, crash!” (Huxley 125).
