Aldous Huxley (1894-1963) was nominated for the Nobel Prize in Literature nine times. Point Counter Point notably connects a number of various characters and plot lines based on real people instead of following a traditional single-narrative structure. Huxley’s novel following Point Counter Point was one of his most well-known, Brave New World.
