What is the climax of the book A Brave New World?

Question

I'm thinking it's when John kills himself. That seems like its the ending though. If that is in fact the climax, what would be the falling action?

Thanks for your help.

Answer 1

John killing himself is the denouement.  The climax is the riot/orgy.

Answer 2

Just remember that the climax is the END to the major conflict.  If there is no more conflict following a given event, then it's most likely that that was the climax.
