First British edition of Huxleyâ s complex and powerful novel. Octavo, original light blue cloth. Very good in the rare original dust jacket which is in good condition. First published in 1944 by Harper & Brothers in New York, Huxley's Time Must Have a Stop follows the story of Sebastian Barnack, a young poet who holidays with his hedonistic uncle in Florence. Many of the philosophical themes discussed in the novel are explored further in Huxley's 1945 his comparative study of mysticism, The Perennial Philosophy. The book's title derives from Hotspur's death speech in Shakespeare's Henry IV, Part 1 Act V, Scene 4: "But thought's the slave of life, and life time's fool; and time, that takes survey of all the world, must have a stop.".
