Closed from outside world

maghouston — 2023-11-17 15:09:43 UTC

In the novel, The Hunger Games, the author creates a world that seems closed off from the outside world which is an aspect of dystopian genre. In The Hunger Games they have distracts that are closed off by electrical fences. The Capitol has made it so that many distracts are more poor and less excess to the world than other distracts. In the book it says, " Separating the Meadow from the woods, in fact enclosed all of Distract 12, is a high chain-link fence topped with barbed-wire loops" (Collins,4). This proves that the Capital wants to make it impossible to make it out of the distract 12 alive. The only way to get out of the distracts are if you are sent to fight for your lives in The Hunger Games, or if your invited to the Capitol, which would not be good news. In The Hunger Games it shows that the distracts are closed off from the real world.

In the novel the hunger games, it shows no individuality by the author creating a world in which every one in district 12 is struggling to survive and every one has a hard labor job. We can see this when it says "Usually crawling with coal miners heading out to the morning shift at this hour. Men and women with hunched shoulders, swollen knuckles, many who have long since stopped trying to scrub the coal dust out of their broken nails" (suzanne collins 5) this shows that most people do the same thing there whole life.

They are not able to see the outside world because of this. "But since we're lucky to get two or three hours of electricity in the evenings, it's usually safe to touch" (Collins 4-5).

Apocalyptic

lei_D — 2023-11-21 15:09:50 UTC

in the novel, the Hunger Games, the setting makes it seem as an apocalyptic world. because they thought they thought that killing people for entertainment was normal. "All colors seem artificial, the pinks too deep, the greens too bright, the yellows too painful to the eyes, like the flat round disks of hard candy we can never afford to buy at the tny sweet shop in district 12" this shows just how bad the living conditions are horendous.

" My father knew and he taught me some before he was blown to bits in a mine explosion" (Collins 5). This shows that The Hunger games has a apocalyptic setting because no normal world would have mines for you to step on and die. This quote supports the topic sentence because, mines have been used for tricking soldiers in war, so for the Capital and so called peace keepers to put those in the distracts is proving that the Capital has taken over. In The Hunger Games the setting is apocalyptic, and the distracts are taken over and are doomed for war.

For the hunger games, when you turn 12 years old, your name gets entered into the reaping lottery system once. For example... " That year, your name is entered once. At thirteen, twice. And so on..." ( Collins 13). In this society, the higher-ups in the Capital make the rules for the hunger games. The rules, however ,favor the rich over the poor. For example, Gale and Katniss enter their names extra times to get more food for their families, whereas somebody like Madge, who is from a wealthy family, has never has to do something like that. The older you are the greater chance of you getting chosen for the games. This is why it is so shocking when Prim gets selected on her first year of the reaping, because her name was on only one entry out of thousands. Although the rule sounds fair, in reality the odds are never in your favor if you're poor.
