    The trend of dystopic young adult fiction is quite nauseating. The Hunger Games is a shameless inoculator‚ its anti-subversive‚ pseudo-dystopic‚ politically biased‚ and simplified world-building has inseminated the genre‚ producing more works of the same platitude. It’s strange to think that Suzanne Collins was actually attempting to write an important piece of social commentary‚ when the book was completely devoid anything thought-provoking. She failed to grasp the concept of a dystopia and instead

For instance‚ in-order to properly put on this performance or façade of love‚ Katniss attempts to rely on the real love felt by

    In the story “The Hunger Games” Dystopian literature is portrayed as dictatorship within the government and it is seen as the antagonist in the story. Suzanne Collins exaggerated the government and how it was ran. Suzanne made the story written by a teenager who was independent and did not believe in what President Snow was doing to the country.

Katniss made what I would say the biggest sacrifice of the book; she volunteered as tribute so her little sister doesn’t have to go into the Hunger Games. The Hunger Games is a fight to the death battle consisting
