Jouvence ( After Many has Summer ) is a novel of Science-fiction writes in 1939 by Aldous Huxley (the United Kingdom).

Summary

A megalomaniac and limited billionaire, his perverse doctor and his courtesan, here is the basic screen of Youth . Add an English scholar somewhat out of phase, a writer philanthropist and a young doctor utopian, you obtain the perfect team for an oneiric search of the Immortalité.

You with imagine the interior of an idiot in the néo-castle extremely concreted of OJ Stoyte, with its exposed Carmelite nuns underground and its laboratories. Eternal youth, in the absence of money, and especially, a death esthetized, dedramatized to the extreme and yet obsessing. The hyperreality is within reach.
