Brave New World - 16

Page 144: "It hung there trembling, within an inch of those limp fingers, on the verge of contact."

This is getting weird. It is now obvious to me that these cultures are extremely different. John would not even lay a finger on Lenina. It seemed that she was almost sacred to him. Lenina had the sam, yet opposite attitude to her. She was almost afraid of him and she wouldn't touch them either. Also, my earlier prediction is looking good. Bernard does have a revolting mind and since the Director is sending him to Iceland, he wants to humiliate him by bringing his son back home. He also brings Linda with him because she is also revolting. In addition, John used the title of the book in his dialogue. I caught it!
