I think that in the book Divergent, the book I am currently
reading. The setting is very abnormal. I think this because of many reasons,
such as the houses that the main character lives in and how society functions.
I also think society is very advanced in their technology. I think this because
of the way they function, although they have some of the same things we have
today, such as trains, they also have more high tech homes and drinks that help
with the test they take. I think this is
one reason their society is advanced because we today can’t come close to a
legal drink that will do this to someone. We also couldn’t think of having the technology
they have in our own homes. I also think that one thing that is very
interesting is that Triss could only look in the mirror for so long because she
was born into the selfishness faction. I think this would be very weird because
we have gotten used to looking at ourselves in the mirror and making ourselves
look good. So in their faction they wouldn’t know if they look good or not
which could be a struggle for some people. I also think it would be very hard
for some people to become one faction because this means you have to fit in, and
in society today a lot of people don’t perfectly fit in making this adjustment
very hard. I think living in this society would have to be a big adjustment,
because all of the aspects of life are changed in many un expected ways.
I like how you went in depth about how the society in Divergent differs from our society today. I could really visualize the differences.
ReplyDeleteI like how your opinion of the book's setting is really potrated in this blog. Also had a really good thought process.
