Welcome to the Women Petprenuers Podcast Book Club episode, your hosts Mary Oquendo and Denise Heroux dive into the classic dystopian novel "Brave New World" by Aldous Huxley. Together, they reflect on what it’s like to read this nearly 100-year-old book as adults, comparing their current insights with memories of high school English class. The discussion touches on the book's heavy themes, its portrayal of society, and how some of Huxley’s imagined future eerily parallels our own world today. Both Mary Oquendo and Denise Heroux share their honest struggles with finishing the book, critique the characters and the narrative, and consider its relevance for modern readers. They also chat about the challenges of revisiting old classics and hint at lighter, more humorous reads for upcoming book club sessions.
