He is a young man that lives in the Savage Reservation of New Mexico. John
only wanted to be accepted by society, but in the village other boys
discriminated him and not allow him to play with them because he was different.
They say him "white hair" and that his mother was a
"she-dog". He was alone because of being different.
Also he has a dream, he wanted to know the “Other Place”, that place from which his mother came and which his mother tells him wonderful things: lovely music, nice games, delicious food and drinks, nice smells and everybody happy.

First, I will talk
about Miranda and John the Savage. Miranda (from the Tempest) has
lived all his life on an island, far from civilization and the world to which she
belongs; just like John (from BNW), that has lived in the village of Malpais on
the Savage Reservation, far from the civilization, the “Other Place”. John has
lived alone with his mother, knowing anyone civilized, and being rejected by
the uncivilized people; on the other hand, Miranda has never seen any men
except his father and Caliban.
Now I will compare Prospero
(from the Tempest) with Mustapha Mond (from BNW). Prospero before was
the Duke of Milan, and then, in the Island, he practiced magic. On the other
side, Mustapha Mond was the Resident Controller of Western Europe and One of
the Ten World Controllers. So, both represent power and importance.
Other characters that
are important to compare are Ariel (from the Tempest) and Helmotz
Watson (from BNW). Both have a role of help, Ariel being Prospero’s spirit
servant and doing all the tasks that he give him; and Helmotz being friend of
Bernard Marx because both have a feeling of discontent with the World State,
talking with him and supporting him.
