She has a son, John, and her reentry into society has deadly results for her. One of the most tragic figures in the dystopian novel Brave New World is Linda, a Beta who was left at the Reservation by the Director of Hatcheries. In the Aldous Huxley novel Brave New World, a “freemartin” (mentioned in chapters 1, 3, 11 and 17) is a woman who has been deliberately made sterile by exposure to hormones during fetal development in the book, government policy requires freemartins to constitute 70% of the female population. Epsilons are generally considered morons, and they can’t read or write. What color do Epsilons wear?Įpsilons are the very bottom of the hierarchy – carriers, sewage workers and so forth – and they wear black. Some Betas included Lenina Crowne, Fanny Crowne, and Linda. Examples of Alphas include Thomas, Henry Foster, Mustapha Mond, Bernard Marx, Benito Hoover, and Helmholtz Watson.
Alphas wear gray, and Betas wear mulberry. Unlike the lower castes, Alphas and Betas are not clones, allowing for more individual personalities.
