"Crome YellowHuxley's first novelis famous for its technique, ideas, and
acute psychological descriptions. As such, it ranks alongside Antic Hay, Eyeless in
Gaza, and Point Counter Point."The Times
"Robert Whitfield's unabridged reading of Huxley's first novel is a triumph of one man's vocal capacities
