The Hunger Games did nothing for me (it's my fav example of the movie is better than the book!)--Katness is just too whiny.OTOH, the Giver is amazing. And they almost caught it in the movie. It was a tough tough thing to do, and they got pretty close.

I think "The Giver Quartet Omnibus Deluxe Collector's Edition" is a great example of how to properly incorporate themes in stories and what it would look like in practice. I do have fond memories of the story back when I was a young boy, because I found the setting to be peculiar.
The story is very basic, telegraphed in a lot of ways (it's for children, to be fair). However, it does a great job of staying thematically on point, it also includes questions that English teachers would ask...
I like reading such works because it helps remind me of the basics when it comes to writing.
With luck, I might do that since my failed adventure with FreeBSD bore no fruit and only more questions.

Another thorny utopia, Lowry's Community practices a different kind of strategy to the Hideous Bargain: ethical evasion, a too tempting strategy for all of us.

Day 7/20: The Giver – Lois Lowry
only realized the depth and meaning behind this series when i re-read it years later. to young me, this defined knowledge and suffering and human memory in a way i hadn’t previously seen.
the graphic novel is absolutely unmatched; use of color becomes so much more vivid. i have yet to see the movie, though – is it any good?
