Brave New World
How is Bernard Marx different from his associates?

Physically, Bernard is not a perfect specimen that his Alpha Plus counterparts are. People speculate that there was a mistake made and alcohol put in his blood-surrogate when he was in the bottle.
Emotionally Bernard is something of an enigma to others. He is solitary (like to be alone), hates obstacle golf, does not like Soma or casual sex in the same way others do.
