Crome Yellow is the first novel by British author Aldous Huxley, published in 1921. In the book, Huxley satirises the fads and fashions of the time. It is the story of a house party at Crome, a parodic version of Garsington Manor, home of Lady Ottoline Morrell, a house where authors such as Huxley and T. S. Eliot used to gather and write.
Quotes
From WikiquoteDinted, dimpled, wimpled — his mind wandered down echoing corridors of assonance and alliteration ever further and further from the point. He was enamoured with the beauty of words.
He took nobody by surprise; there was nobody to take.
All that happens means something; nothing you do is ever insignificant.
Wild inside; raging, writhing — yes, "writhing" was the word, writhing with desire. But outwardly he was hopelessly tame; outwardly — baa, baa, baa.
