by Aldous Huxley

Aldous Huxley's Limbo is a collection of six short stories and a play that explore themes of relationships, social class, marriage, love, family, loss, and the meaning of life. The stories are set in a variety of times and places, but they are all united by Huxley's keen eye for human nature and his wry sense of humor.
