Huxley releases several collections of verse and of short stories and finally has his breakthrough with the novel "Crome Yellow", which is released in 1921. In 1919, he marries Maria Nys, who gives birth to his son Matthew in 1920. After his excellent examen in English, Huxley has various jobs and increasing financial problems.

These events contribute to some extent to his scepticism towards the world. In 1908, his mother dies of cancer, in 1911, Aldous gets an eye infection that makes him almost blind for many years, and in 1914, his brother Trevenen commits suicide. But his education is disturbed by three crucial events. From the year 1908, he visits Eton College and from 1913 on he studies in Oxford. Therefore literature and science are connected in his intellectual family, what leads to high expectations towards Aldous and his brothers Julian and Trevenen. His father Leonard Huxley is the son of the biologist Thomas Huxley. His mother, Julia Huxley, née Arnold, is related to the poet Matthew Arnold and to the Victorian novelist Mrs Humphrey Ward.
