" 'Yes, I do find it of sufficient scientific interest,' said the deep voice. 'Bring these two individuals back to London with you' " (141).
The above quote is the part of the discussion Bernard has with Mustapha Mond concerning bringing Linda and John back to London. I believe that this decision could be part of the rising action in the novel. I have a feeling that something big will happen because of this decision. This decision could potentially change many things about the secure society that have been in place for a very long time. Bernard and Lenina are about to return to London with two savages as their souvenirs. Judging from Bernard and Lenina's first reactions to Linda and John, I am guessing many people back home will have similar thoughts. I think that this decision also has the capability of producing a break through in the scientific world in London. This could be a great opportunity for the people in London to study new things like how having a child effects their own kind, how living with the savages alters the brain, and how a child of one of them is effected by being raised among the savages. I think that Linda and John (after everyone gets over the initial shock of their appearance and background) could provide significant information to the scientists behind the whole operation.
