"Aldous Huxley, British author perhaps most famous for his novel Brave New World and forty-six other books, came to America in 1937. For a brief time he and his wife resided in the Antelope Valley in one of the stone houses constructed by members of the Llano del Rio Colony. Of interest to residents of the Antelope Valley is his children's book, The Crows of Pearblossom."

Quoted from Bonnie D. Stone's book, San Andreas Ain't No Fault of Mine, pp. 95-96

ALDOUS HUXLEY SLEPT HERE is an anthology of work by Antelope Valley authors. It contains poetry, short stories and memoirs. It is the third in the series, the first two of which were TALES OF THE GREEN JACKELOPE and RED SKIES LIKE NO PLACE ON EARTH. The work in Aldous Huxley... runs from very polished and professional to very unpolished but gut wrenchingly real, as authors examine beauty, loss, war, humor and love. The short stories range from modern takes on the Native American legends of "The Trickster," and "Winds of the Great Mojave," to murder in "Overhearing..." to horses and dogs with "Mohawk" haircuts. These are stories and poems that show the diversity of society and of literary talent here in the Antelope Valley. No matter what page you open to, you will find something fascinating from people who might be your next door neighbors. The book has been assembled by UWAV--The Unknown Writers of the Antelope Valley workshop--and is published by local publisher--MousePrints Publishing. Even the cover design is by a local poet and artist, Edwin Vasquez.
