I think 'Brave New World' is the most thought - provoking. It makes you really consider what a future society could be like if we let technology and social engineering go too far. It shows a world where people are happy in a very artificial way, and it makes you question the value of true emotions and freedom.

Definitely 'Brave New World'. It challenges our ideas about what a perfect society should be. The way it portrays a society where everyone is conditioned from birth, and there's no real family or individuality. It also makes you think about how much control we should allow the state or technology to have over our lives. And the contrast between the 'civilized' world in the novel and the 'savage' reservation really gets you thinking about different ways of living.
