Reductionism In Brave New World

What if life contributed to no meaning and the only point which matters is the existence happening during the present? To make things worse, as humans live, they breath, but as they die a salvation is received to their soul, and their existence is over.

These characters both had a similar mindset when it came to how they preserved society.

The persona makes no remarks of sentiment despite it being their home, but instead sounds more of an observer, or rather, an outsider. In addition, the words “[w]ho would live in a country town [i]f they had their wish” echoes the personas sentiments. There is a sense of disdain towards the township in this, which eventually progresses into frustration in the third stanza. There is a notable line break in “[m]any around me sleep // [b]ut not I” which evidently separates the persona from the townspeople.

Card believes he is teching through his book that the morality of an act is based solely on the intentions of the person acting. On the other hand, John Kessel, a writer, thinks the book is about making the readers feel bad for the main character Enderx.
