Loved it! 😍
Complex sentences work against Huxley's impressive style of narration. Long-winded sentences interfere with the enjoyment of this classic.
I love Huxley's command of the English language. However, his long-winded and extremely complex sentences interferred with my ability to follow and enjoy his style of narration. I apologize, but I could not finish the book. Maybe I will return to it one day and task myself with the determination to finish it.
