Brave New World

I finished reading ”Brave New World." The book was so good that I couldn't believe that it was written about 90 years ago. The story contained many interesting settings and the characters were also unique. In this world, people use a drug, which has no side effect, regularly instead of alcohol. Therefore, people don't feel uncomfortable, upset, and angry. However, even if this drug existed, I wouldn't use it. I think negative emotions to some degree are necessary to live a meaningful life.

In this world, peopleinstead of alcohol, people regularly use a drug, which hasith no side effect, regularly instead of alcohols.

You had all the right information, and I couldn't really say why your grammar is wrong, but it still just sounded like the sentence was in an order no native speaker would put it in.

Therefore, people don't feel uncomfortable, upset, andor angry.

I think "or" fits better, because if you use "and" then it sounds a bit like you are specifically saying, people don't feel those three emotions at the same time.

However, even if this drug existed, I wouldn't use it.

I think negative emotions to some degree are necessary to live a meaningful life.

Feedback

Brave new world is such a classic of English literature. I really should read it some day huh.

Thank you for your correction! I read it in Japanese, but I also want to try it in English. The novel includes so many wordplays that are hard to translate. Unlike the Japanese one, the English version is free and open online.

Oh wow! I’m actually reading this book for my English class. I also think the premise of the book and the characters are very intriguing to read about.

Sounds good! I think literary works in textbooks are really interesting, but I didn't notice when I was in high school.
