Anthony Beavis, a cynical libertine Oxford graduate, comes of age in the vacuum left by World War I. His life, loves, and foreign adventures leave him unfulfilled, until he meets a charismatic doctor who inspires Anthony to become a Marxist and join the Mexican revolution--a disastrous embrace of violence that leaves the doctor with one leg. Shattered by the experience, Anthony forges a new, quasi-Buddhist philosophy that embraces pacifism. EYELESS IN GAZA remains one of Huxley's most enduring novels, a testament to the challenges and rewards of bold, vigorous thinking. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv style=\"display:none\"\u003eISBN-10: 0061724890\u003cbr\u003eISBN-13: 9780061724893\u003cbr\u003eAuthor: Huxley, Aldous, N\/A, N\/A\u003cbr\u003ePublisher: Harper Perennial\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Harper Perennial","offers":[{"title":"Paperback (Oct 2009)","offer_id":45660010709189,"sku":"9780061724893","price":18.04,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0708\/6414\/2533\/files\/9780061724893.jpg?v=1768916693","url":"https:\/\/www.inveni.store\/products\/eyeless-in-gaza","provider":"Inveni","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
