Questions
So reading this book I have a lot of questions that don't get answered and it kinda of annoys me, I like answers. First what happened to naming your country, the "Society" is not the best name. Second I assume the society in the book used to be like ours, modern day. Now everything is scheduled, organized, and basically there is a very thin line between right and wrong. So the question is why does everything have to be controlled? What form of government do they have? Also what is the purpose of the one hundreds list? The one hundreds list is a list of one hundred songs, or books, or films basically anything. They thought there world was too cluttered so they destroyed everything except for the "one hundred best" of each movie, songs, paintings, etc.
It doesn't seem like you liked this book. What would you rate in out of 10? Do you think that others should read it even though it doesn't give you straight answers? It seems very interesting!
ReplyDeleteThose are some legitimate questions you got there. Do you think that the burned all of these movies and songs and books and such just because it was too cluttered or is there the possibility that it was to censor the society and get rid of ideas they didn't like?
ReplyDeleteIs it possible that the government thought that art, literature, music, ect. was distracting or depriving society of time that can be used for productivity?
