The Reservation

The Reservation is a fenced place, for the uncivilized people (for us they actually are civilized). The Reservation contains 4 Subreservations, in our novel they cover an area of about 560,000 km², and the fence is under high voltage, so that the 60,000 uncivilized people can´t escape.
In the Reservation Babies are still naturally born and grown up by their parents, in a family with love and care.
For the "civilized" people the Reservation is dirty and strange, like an attraction which they visit just like we visit a Zoo.

I think the Reservation should symbolise and metaphorise what we already do nowadays, and what we started to do when Aldous Huxley wrote his novel, it symbolizes the steps we take away from our root, from our ancestors and our beliefs and religions.
Because in the modern world we start to lose values and morality.
Every step we take towards progress, we take away from a world of values, a world we once used to know.
