Books About Utopia-Distopia
In the final weeks of this course, you will read a novel that has some utopian elements. You will discuss the book regularly with your classmates. You will make a final presentation on the novel to the entire class.
To start with, you may choose one of these books:
Little Brother by Cory Doctorow
The Giver by Lois Lowry
Each of these books takes place in a utopian society that has become a dystopia. As you read, look for the elements of the society that would make it a utopia and the elements that would make it a dystopia.
