Aldous Huxley Society
The international Aldous Huxley Society (AHS), founded in Münster on 25 June 1998, has two chief purposes: to promote the academic study of the works of Aldous Huxley, in particular critical editions, commentaries and interpretations, and to make a wider public acquainted with the thought and writings of the author.
