Aldous Huxley, author of eleven novels, remains one of the towering figures of the twentieth century, his work resistant to passing fads in literature. This critical biography explores Huxley's lifelong quest for self-actualization by intertwining the events of his life and details of the creative period that produced each book. Considering Huxley's letters, essays and interviews in its examination of the thematic content of each novel, the text finds a man striving for the intellectual growth that would yield a sound philosophical and spiritual view of life, one he infused into his work.

Ronald T. Sion, whose Ph.D. in humanities with a concentration in modern literature is from Salve Regina University in Newport, Rhode Island, teaches English at Cranston High School East in Cranston, Rhode Island, and has served on the adjunct faculty of the Rhode Island School of Design.
