This book is a great choice for people who cares for books and literary alike. Books like these are very attractive because it is made from pure imagination. Imagination is what lead the author to this world where books are abandoned and is illegalized from society. However, a guy named Guy decides to search his curiosity and tries to keep books. This is what brought him the trouble, but for people today, this world doesn’t sound right. That is because we are different and right. Since there is no right or wrong themes, there is always a theme that is most close to. Therefore, I came up with this theme statement: Literature is such a big thing in people’s world that it is part of one’s growth of intelligence, thus separates us from animals. I thought about this statement very hard and decided this is as much as I can go close to the “perfect” theme for the novel. People has some story of exterminating certain books like the Holy Bible and Buddhist books, etc. The reason is from the idea that these books are the cause of such conflicts.
Personally I believe that exterminating certain books is ok, because some books are just very inappropriate and has no moral in it. I can’t give an example because I’ve never read one. However, I don’t agree with the fact that people should illegalize books and banned them.
It is important for the teens living in 2008 because teens grow in a very fast rate. And it is adults duty to use this speed of growth for the good, and one critical way is reading and teaching books, so that they can grow intellectually. Books are one way to grow and let their minds learn about the very world they live in. Even if it’s fictional, there is morals or symbols that will teach the teenagers about life.
