" 'Just to give you a general idea,' he would explain to them. For of course some sort of general idea they must have, if they were to do their work intelligently-though as little of one, if they were to be good and happy mempers of society, as possible" (4).
Now that I have completed Never Let Me Go, I begin the journey through Brave New World. I am already able to already realize a similarity between the two. It seems that like Never Let Me Go, Brave New World is a novel with genetically enginerred beings as the main subjects. Brave New World seems to start at the beginning of the whole process rather than just jumping into the plot and filling in the gaps as the story progresses like Never Let Me Go. This first chapter begins with a tour of the facilities with explanation of the process for the new students. I think that this is also (if not more) to give readers an idea of what goes on at the Central London Hatchery and Conditioning Centre. The purpose of this introduction to the new students and the readers of the 21st century is to give general information about the happenings in the Hatchery so that we will be able to better understand what the coming chapters have to offer. Also, the confusing introduction to all of the unfamiliar processes is a way to lead into the action where we will discover more about these things, the purposes, and what is really going on here.
