«Contrapunto» is the novel by Aldous Huxley published by Seix Barral in 1983 in paperback (439 pages, in Spanish).
Contrapunto portrays the social and intellectual life of interwar England: characters who cross paths at parties and discuss art, love, politics and faith. Huxley alternates their stories like a musical counterpoint and satirizes London high society and the bohemia of the twenties, with characters based on real figures of the era.
It belongs to the Obras Maestras de la Literatura Contemporánea collection (number 37). It was originally published in 1928 as Point Counter Point and this Spanish edition includes the translation by Lino Novás Castro.
A read for those who appreciate social satire and the novel of ideas, with a critical look at interwar British society.
Aldous Leonard Huxley was an English writer and philosopher. His bibliography spans nearly 50 books, including non-fiction works, as well as essays, narratives and poems.
