How would you describe John's upbringing? Why do you think he says he is "Alone, always alone." (Pg. 137). How does Bernard fell about John?
John's upbringing was odd. His mother was from the Brave New World world, and had a baby and so could never go back; John. John grew up with his mother constantly telling him tales of the other word, and he constantly imagined going there, as he feels underprivileged; like he's missing out. Also, other boys made fun of his mother, and made him feel like he didn't belong. Bernard feels that he is like him, as he also feels alone.
Why does John at the end of chapter say "Oh brave new world!" (Pg 139)
Because he has found a friend- Bernard, and they're joking around and talking about marriage and he wants to see the brave new world.
