38. Violence in Suzanne Collins's The Hunger Games Trilogy

This book is from Greenhaven Press's Social Issues in Literature series. It contains essays written by various people about the Hunger Games series. Some of the essays were very good (and I may use some of the concepts in my fic Panem), but others suffered from such issues as confirmation bias and Did Not Do the Research (as in it was obvious the person writing the critique hadn't read the whole series).


"Oh, you can’t help that," said the Cat: "we’re all mad here. I’m mad. You’re mad."
"How do you know I’m mad?" said Alice.
"You must be," said the Cat, "or you wouldn’t have come here.”
