The novel The Hunger Games is written by author Suzannne Collins. Collins created a dystopian novel that has similarities to the current society we live in and could be interpreted to be what the future holds. Throughout the book characteristics of a dystopia society are revealed. From districts starving, living in poverty, being killed for trying to escape to somewhere better and being forced to do things they do not want to do. The beginning of the book on page three, starts with the main character Katniss Everdeen assuming her sister left their bed for their mothers’ because of nightmares caused by the reaping. The reaping is when each district chooses a boy and girl to take place in the Hunger Games. The Hunger games is a sadistic way the capital reminds their citizens they are in control.

The character who is in charge of the Capitol is President Snow and he and the people of Panem have created this entertainment for themselves called the hunger games. The games consists of randomly drawing one male and one female from each district to compete in the games until one alive remains.

The Hunger Games, a novel by Suzanne Collins, is the story of 16 years old, Katniss Everdeen, who fights to death for her district. The Hunger Games is an event hosted every year by the Capitol of Panem, where a randomly chosen boy and girl both need to represent each of the twelve districts that the capitol is composed of. When Katniss little sister, Prim, is chosen to be the representative for District twelve, Katniss volunteers to take her place and fight along her male counterpart, Peeta. The reason I choose this book for my book report is because Katniss is not your typical 16 year old girl. Not only is she her family’s provider but she’s also skillful, strong, rebellious, and unsentimental heroine. These are characteristics that society would mostly link to a 16 year old boy rather than a girl.

One of the first traits that Katniss has is bravery. To begin, Katniss shows her bravery when she considers running away from the Capitol. Katniss understands that there is an uprising in District eight and she says to Peeta, “We have to get out” (Collins 103). From this quote one can understand that Katniss

Suzanne Collins’ The Hunger Games is a dystopian novel about the adventures of Katniss Everdeen, who is forced to battle against other children in a fight-to-the-death tournament. Throughout the novel, Katniss appears to be saved by luck in many near death situations. She is fortunate when her backpack protects her from a knife and when she chooses a tree with a tracker jacker nest. Many believe Katniss survives because she has never-ending luck in the arena. This assumption may be true; however, the other tributes aid Katniss throughout the games. She becomes dependent on other people to make decisions easier for her. Luck does not play a role in Katniss’ survival because the other tributes actions save her in life-threatening situations.

Katniss Everdeen, the main character, is recovering from the quarter quell. She is being told by Gale that district 12 was blown up. When the went there, she was shocked. Katniss gathered all of the cherished belongings and then went to district eight. President Snow bombed a hospital and other places around it. Katniss saw how many people were suffering from diseases and death. Katniss, Gale and their crew team were walking around until the capital finds them. As they try to hit Katniss, they miss and hit the hospital. Katniss was thinking why Snow was doing this. She saw Peeta when he was giving a propo and warns district 13 that Snow is going to bomb them. They take cover in the lowest level, but Katniss can not find Prim.

In the movie, The Hunger Games, the director, Gary Ross, attempts to convey several messages about human nature and the current state of the world. This can be seen through an analysis of the mise-en-scéne in the beginning of the games scene. I argue that in this scene Ross was portraying human nature as selfish and following the logic of neorealism and Thomas Hobbes, while also showing the romanticism of violence by Western Culture.
