Back by popular demand! Dystopian Literature is literature of an imperfect world. Do we live in a dystopia right now? What do you think? We will talk about Dystopian Literature as a popular and growing genre due to The Hunger Games, the Divergent series, and The Maze Runner, but also look at classics of the genre, most notably 1984 by George Orwell. There will be plenty of time to write our own dystopian short stories or novel chapters, and the class will culminate in an anthology to take home and showcase the worlds you have created.
