Here at For Reading Addicts we are no strangers to some dark or disturbing dystopian novels and love recommending new or classic titles to you all. We have quizzes, or articles about the genre, and a writer among us who is attempting their own dystopian story… We came across this TED-Ed video online and thought we would share it with our Reading Addicts, and await your opinions… Do you believe dystopian novels have an important place in the literary world? Do they push boundaries and make us think? Or are they just stories, meant for no other purpose than to entertain?
Let us know what you think of the video below.
