Hey /lit/, what is the best edition of Brave New World by Aldous Huxley aside from pic related?

I honestly don't enjoy Huxley.

Your post is bad and you should feel bad.
Why is /lit/ so strung out over editions?
Has anyone ever told you people that for non-translations, it's the same fucking book? Does a foreword by Nobody McWackmeoff really matter? Does cover art really matter? Have you considered going outside for once in your life if you've ever had a serious debate on this topic?

While I broadly agree, different editions vary in font choice and size, quality of ink, paper stock and binding quality. Older editions even may have typos and other errors due to the manual way the type was set.

Is island worth reading? I haven't picked up a book in a year or so, but Brave New World is one of my favorites.
I have one with huxley's commentary on how the world is quickly approaching brave new world ideas faster than he thought they would. It's really good. Purple cover. Blue dots.

it's a lot more didactic. I'd say its worth reading if you're a fan of Huxley
