1. Chapter 4-5: In these chapter we see new characters Lanina and Henry. Lanina is offended that cremated alpha and beta corpses don’t make better fertiliser than the gamma, delta and epsilon bodies. Henry has to explain to her that all people are chemically equal ,, even Epsilons are useful”. When Lanina questions whether epsilons mind being in that cast Henry says that no one can miss what they don't know. This explanation clarifies how the state restricts and tailors education to each caste. The conversation shows the effectiveness of state-run hypnopaedic discrimination and other castes obliviation and relentlessness.

2. Chapter 1: This novel begins with a guided tour for students at the Central London Hatchery and Conditioning Centre. There they are shown how humans are created, also they are divided in 5 classes: alpha, beta, gamma, delta and epsilons. This company is trying to achieve their only goal and it is to have a stabilized community.

2.1. Chapter 3: this chapter was similar to chapter 2, to sum up chapter 2-3 I want to say that these chapters are really unexpected and breathtaking they were about new technological improvements, but they were't minding our lives and tortured new created children just to improve their goal.

3. Chapter 2: The tour is finishing up in the Decanting Room, after that they proceed to a room where they are shown a group of Delta class humans that are being conditioned to hate books.

3.1. Chapters 6-7: Bernard and Lanina travel to New Mexico where Bernard finds out that the director intended to exile him to Iceland. Moreover, this chapter introduces us with the geography of the Malpais paced reservation. It notes the language and stereotypes of racism used to dramatically oppose this space to the London of the previous chapters. Huxley showcases the caged, uncivilised world where people experience the joys and horrors of ageing, parenth Emotions are not conditioned into oblivion and where they’re permitted to make choices instead of living a programmed life. Here they first encounter John the savage a handsome golden haired white man dressed like an Indian who speaks in Shakespearean quotes. John’s mother is Linda the directors presumed dead girlfriend. Linda explains that director is John’s father.

4. Chapter 8: Bernard asks John to explain about his life. this chapter mostly is about John flashback in which john is a small child and Linda begind dating. some scenes are horrifying because Linda is spoken of bad words by other and she became something like prostitute on the Reservation. But never minding that she learned John to read.

The director want to fire Bernard from this job, despite that he is a good worker and does his job very well, Director thinks that Bernard is giving a bad example here.

Also John read his book to Helmholtz, but when Helmholtz started laughing he was disappoited and stops reading.

6.1. Chapter 13: This chapter is really interesting because Henry wanted to take Lenina to a date and he noticed somethings wrong, he asks her if she's ill or something. but she is upset about John. She tried to see other men but nothing stoped her to think about John. One day she takes some soma and goes to John to talk about real relationship and Lenina is thirsty of sex and want to have it right away, but John noticed this when she started to remove her clothes and named her a whore

7.3. Chapter 17: this chapter contains a lot of discussion and arguing. John says that humans cannot make their society how they want with no fear not emotions and etc. He thinks that the world should show us the real pain, suffer and happiness.
