Or maybe there's a moderate path towards school reform where more kids get to read, but we don't go totally Brave New World?

(I'm assuming people know 'Brave New World?' Dystopian futuristic novel by Aldous Huxley? Written in 1931, features genetic engineering of humans, and likewise pervasive social engineering of the culture and extensive conditioning to control behavior. Forget Shakespere. Dates back to 1931, and remains amazingly pertinent. Very worth reading if you missed it. Very unlikely to be in the new improved Koch curriculum. Who needs literature anyway?)
YES! Excellent book. He gets a little hinkey with the sexual aspect, but otherwise, very pertinent.
