Those Barren Leaves is asatirical novel byAldous Huxley, published in 1925. The title is derived from the poem "The Tables Turned" byWilliam Wordsworth which ends with the words:
(publ.Chatto & Windus)
- Enough of Science and of Art;
- Close up those barren leaves;
- Come forth, and bring with you a heart
- That watches and receives.
It is the story of Mrs. Aldwinkle and her entourage, members of a cultural elite who are gathered in an Italian palace to relive the glories of the Renaissance.
The work entered the public domain in the United States in 2021,[1] but remains under copyright until 2034 in countries that follow the 70-year post-mortem rule.
