literally my least favorite book.
Try Player Piano by Vonnegut. I thought it was naïve idealist shite also, so you'd probably like it.

Well i don't purposefully go out and read bad shit, but it was just awful, awful writing.
the characters were flat self-fulfillment dolls in Huxley's utopian dollhouse being manipulated by his clumsy hands. Each represented an ideology far too obviously. The protagonist literally cried about snakes AFTER the fact while being coddled by a little girl in a stilted effort to teach us how to get over our fears. And I'm not politically inclined but holy shit the hyper-liberal ideology. I could only imagine what all those drugs did to Huxley's head. His confidence in his knowledge of humanity and society far outweighed his actual knowledge of such. Everything in the book was an apparatus to communicate his ideals, there was little to no actual literary merit. It was just bad.
