Jake Poller teaches in the English department at Queen Mary, University of London. He is the author of Aldous Huxley and Alternative Spirituality (2019) and the editor of Altered Consciousness in the Twentieth Century (2019).
Jake Poller, in his new biography of Aldous Huxley, does the impossible. He covers the ground revealed previously by other scholars, but also manages to add fresh details, knowledgeable insights and astute critiques-and in far fewer pages than in any earlier treatments. This book is not only a marvel of concise and readable scholarship but a welcome and necessary update of the life of one of the 20th century's most provocative intellectuals.-Dana Sawyer, professor of religion and philosophy, Maine College of Art and author of Aldous Huxley: A Biography (2015)
