The Hunger Games - Catching Fire is a richly layered book that conveys numerous meanings and messages. Although it belongs to the dystopian genre, its themes and issues resonate with our current society, such as rebellion, desensitization to violence on TV, reality shows that exploit human suffering, war, famine, and socioeconomic disparities. While the novel depicts scenes of violence where young individuals are pitted against each other, it does not glorify violence. Rather, it serves as a harrowing reflection of the brutal world these characters inhabit. During our discussions, we will address these violent scenes but delve deeper into the personal values and societal problems that the characters encounter. If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact me via email.
