Have you ever wondered how life would be like if society was divided into five factions, each dedicated to the cultivation of a particular virtue ? What if you were different and did not belong in any of the given factions? Then you are a lot like Tris. Tris Prior is the main character in the dystopian novel Divergent, by Veronica Roth. She lives in a world where she must hide her true uniqueness as a Divergent individual, otherwise she puts her life at risk. Tris's aptitude test result was inconclusive, she has the ability to manipulate simulations and throughout the book she shows characteristics from different factions which concludes that she is Divergent. Divergence is to be special in the sense that you

This is no exception in the book Divergent. The society in Divergent split into five distinct factions known as Candor, Abnegation, Dauntless, Amity, and Erudite. From this information, one can infer the worldview depicted in this novel is that one choice defines who a person is forever. This worldview is seen all throughout the book, due to the author’s focus on choice. The characters are forced to choose which faction they wish to reside in, thus possibly leaving all that they previously had known and grown accustomed to. This reality is brutally true for Beatrice Prior as she is forced to come to grips with making this type of decision. Upon making her ultimate decision to join Dauntless she states, “This is what I chose. This is it.” Numerous other decisions are put in front of Beatrice Prior throughout the plot, therefore proving the worldview in Divergent to be rooted in decisions and choices. These choices, in turn, have a long-term effect on someone’s life. The worldview in any novel is brought to life by the author. Taking a look at the author of Divergent, known as Veronica Roth, one immediately comes to the conclusion that she is a believer and follower of Jesus Christ. She freely professes her faith and love for the Lord; therefore, one can see the intricate parallels from Divergent to the Scriptures. For example, the concept of one choice defining the rest of a person’s life or destiny is similar to the monumental choice made in the Garden of Eden, which

Sacrifice is the hardest thing to do. In Veronica Roth’s Insurgent, Tris will do anything to help benefit others. Over the past while Tris has experienced a lot. She has lost friends and her parents. She has sacrificed her life and relationship with Tobias and some of closest friends.

In the book Allegiant, by Veronica Roth, there is one big conflict that causes the other conflicts throughout the book. The big conflict is that the Allegiant are uprising against Evelyn and the Factionless. The Bureau is in charge of the city, but the citizens do not know that they exist. To stop everyone from killing themselves, the Bureau decides to reset everyone's memories with the memory serum. Tobias joins an uprising against the Bureau. After the uprising, he realized that they were trying to find the death serum. Tobias felt bad for taking part in the rebellion and Tris was on the verge of breaking up with him. Then, Tris forms her own group and plans to save the city from the memory serum. One problem is that in order to save the city, Caleb has to die because of the death serum. Tobias and the others were trying to settle the dispute between his mother, Evelyn, and his father, Marcus. Instead of Caleb dying, Tris

She wonders how each choice will affect the city and how it will affect her. The tagline of Insurgent is “one choice can destroy you” (Roth). Tris’ decision can destroy her, not literally, but emotionally. Deciding against Evelyn means deciding against Tobias, whom she trusts and loves. But deciding to go against Marcus and to help Evelyn’s plan succeed, means destroying an entire faction and killing more people. “How strange that something so simple could have been instrumental in my decision to ruin one of my most important relationships and friendships, and damage another” (Roth 155). Tris ultimately decides against Evelyn and Tobias is not happy with her. Not only does Tris have endless amounts of guilt swimming through her head, she has to decide the fate of her city. Actress Shailene Woodley, who plays Tris in the Divergent Trilogy movies, shared in an interview with Los Angeles Times, “it was fun to explore this Tris because she was going through so much more of an internal emotional battle than in the first movie. In the last film she lost her parents, she lost her best friend, so in this movie she’s dealing with a lot of guilt while also trying to figure out how to continue to aid the community that exists around her.” Tris’ final decision may define the final outcome for the community. When talking about if Tris will kill the main antagonist, Janine, in an interview with The Huffington Post, Roth says that Tris always has “her parents in her head, telling her what’s right and what’s wrong.” Tris listens to what she imagines her parents would tell her and that is where she bases her decisions

The author decided to continue the story by giving chapters using Four’s perspective and by doing a time skip. If someone reads this book and hasn’t read the books published before Allegiant and expect to understand they will be disappointed. The ending itself is just complicated and confusing. Overall the author should have just ended the book after Tris’ death instead of adding more chapters. The time skip of two years and half causes many plot holes to appear. The reader is then left up to make theories and make ideas of what they believed happens

How would you feel if the rest of your life was chosen for you based on a simulation? How would you feel if you were to choose to become brave, honest, selfless, compassionate, or intelligent? What if the choice you made meant that you would never be able to visit your family again? In a rigidly structured, dystopian futuristic Chicago in a book called Divergent there is a young woman named Beatrice Prior (“Tris”) that will make the ultimate choice. This book is written by Veronica Roth, who writes young adult fiction, specifically the Divergent series followed by Insurgent and Allegiant. In the book Divergent the characters’ choices are strongly impacted by the societies they live in.

In FOUR, the conflict is exhibited within the main character. Tobias chooses the Dauntless faction, opposite from the Agnegation faction; himself, being in pain from abuse and death there. Now as an initiate

In chapter 12 of Veronica Roth’s Divergent, precise words were used to help the reader connect with the text. In this chapter, Tris wakes up for another day of training to find a paintball gun and some ammo at the foot of her bed. Later in the day, the initiates hop on a train to the paintball arena to play some traditional games. One example of this is on page 130 when Tris is getting back from a fight where she was bruised and scratched all over her body, “I crawl across my mattress, and heave a sigh.” This helps me connect to the real world because when you have to crawl across your mattress you are in a very tired and weak state. This word is better than the words, get or lay, because it helps me connect to a certain time when I have crawled
