Anthony Beavis, a cynical libertine Oxford graduate, comes of age in the vacuum left by World War I. His life, loves, and foreign adventures leave him unfulfilled, until he meets a charismatic doctor who inspires Anthony to become a Marxist and join the Mexican revolution-a disastrous embrace of violence that leaves the doctor with one leg. Shattered by the experience, Anthony forges a new, quasi-Buddhist philosophy that embraces pacifism. EYELESS IN GAZA remains one of Huxleys most enduring novels, a testament to the challenges and rewards of bold, vigorous thinking.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51526354534688,"sku":"NEW0061724890","price":15.54,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/71qb6BM9M4L.jpg?v=1777192309","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/eyeless-in-gaza-a-classic-of-20th-century-british-literature-one-mans-quest-from-revolution-to-pacifism-harper-perennial-modern-classics-0061724890","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
