Crome Yellow is a novel written by Aldous Huxley and published in 1921. The story takes place in a fictional English country house called Crome, where a group of eccentric intellectuals gather for a summer holiday. The protagonist, Denis Stone, is a young poet who is struggling to find his place in the world. He is infatuated with Anne Wimbush, the granddaughter of the house's owner, but is also drawn to the bohemian lifestyle of the other guests. Throughout the novel, the characters engage in witty and philosophical conversations about art, science, and society. They also participate in various activities, such as a garden party, a s�����ance, and a fox hunt. As the summer progresses, Denis becomes disillusioned with the group and begins to question his own artistic aspirations.Crome Yellow is considered a satirical commentary on the intellectual and cultural elite of the time. Huxley's writing style is characterized by his use of irony, humor, and vivid descriptions of the English countryside. The novel is also notable for its exploration of themes such as love, identity, and the search for meaning in life.This Is A New Release Of The Original 1922 Edition.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
