Sobre IBD

A Hollywood millionaire with a terror of death, whose personal physician happens to be working on a theory of longevity-these are the elements of Huxley’s caustic and entertaining satire on man’s desire to live indefinitely. 'A highly sensational plot that will keep astonishing you to practically the final sentence.' -The New Yorker.
