Great-grandson of Dr. Arnold of Rugby, grandson of the scientific philosopher Thomas Henry Huxley, great nephew of Matthew Arnold, Aldous Huxley was born at the very heart of England's humanist elite in its still golden days - the complicated, brilliant, charming boy who, despite the almost total loss of his sight at sixteen, became a titan and culture hero of the decades after the first world war, onterms with the outstanding writers and artists of his days, from D.H. Lawrence to Stravinsky and Auden.
