Set in 2540AD, Aldous Huxley's novel Brave New World is one that has fascinated people to no end. In describing a society that revolves around reproductive technology and sleep-learning, people who've read the book are more than determined to find out just how valid Huxley's ideas are. But the game of patience is a tough one - especially when we won't find out for another 530 years.
For a Brave New World a little sooner, head to the Valley this weekend and march on down to Nine Lives for the Chronicles of Never end of season sale. First time north with their sale boots on, the Sydney based label brings savings to your doorstep: knits from $75, denim from $100, footwear from $100, t-shirting from $50.
