  • Old world vs new world- very apparent in this chapter. Can be seen in the comparison of Lenina (strictly new world) and the savages (strictly old world).
  • Control and maintenance - due to the method of maintaining youth described by Bernard
  • Culture- singing and music, whipping to bring forth the rain compared to the culture of the “new world”.

  • Savage reservation- Malpais
  • “On the top of this rock was the Indian village of Malpais. Block above block, each storey smaller than the one below, the tall houses rose in great stone steps into the blue sky. At their feet lay an untidy group of low buildings, and on three sides the tall rocks fell straight down into the plain. A few columns of smoke rose into the still air and were lost.”- excerpt from the novel
  • Based on Lenina’s comments, the setting gives off a dirty, almost repulsive feel.
