Brave New World Chp 8

This chapter gives a background to John's life and it shows how he was isolated as a kid because he's a hybrid of both worlds and accepted by neither.  His mother was not fond of the idea of monogomy which made John into an outcast.  John found his passion in reading at first it was only a job manual from his mother but eventually he read Shakespeare's work.  At the end of the chapter Bernard offers John to come to the civilized world with him along with his mother.  I think that Bernard will use John as blackmail against the director so he can stay in London however I don't know why he is bringing Linda along with him.
