"Mortal Coils" is a collection of short stories by Aldous Huxley first published in 1921. This collection includes several stories that explore themes of love, desire, and the complexities of human relationships.
One notable story in the collection is "The Gioconda Smile," which centers on a woman named Mrs. Hutton and her marital problems. As the story unfolds, secrets are revealed, and the characters' lives become increasingly entangled in a web of deception and betrayal.
Another standout story in "Mortal Coils" is "Permutations Among the Nightingales," which follows a group of Paris-based artists as they navigate a bohemian lifestyle and wrestle with their own desires and ambitions.
The story of "Mortal Coils" demonstrates Huxley's keen observation of human behavior and his ability to create nuanced, psychologically rich stories.
Summary
"Miss Spence will be down directly, sir."
"Thank you," said Mr. Hutton, without turning round. Janet Spence's parlourmaid was so ugly?ugly on purpose, it always seemed to him, malignantly, criminally ugly?that he could not bear to look at her more than was necessary. The door closed. Left to himself, Mr. Hutton got up and began to wander round the room, looking with meditative eyes at the familiar objects it contained.
Photographs of Greek statuary, photographs of the Roman Forum, coloured prints of Italian masterpieces, all very safe and well known. Poor, dear Janet, what a prig?what an intellectual snob!
