Just wanted to stop by and tell you how much I enjoyed your comments at the Hunger Games panel. I was the girl who wanted to talk about the historical themes in the books, and I really valued your response to my questions.
ReplyDeleteSome of these are books that I wouldn't classify as dystopian. For example, "The Dead and the Gone" and "Rot & Ruin" are both post-apocalyptic, but I wouldn't call them dystopian because they don't exhibit the kind of repressive society that typically characterizes dystopian fiction. Otherwise, looks like a great list!
ReplyDeleteSheila-
ReplyDeleteSome of the books are on the list for that very reason. There was a segment of discussion at the Dystopian panel about the difference between Post-Apocalyptic and Dystopian, and I wrote down all the books mentioned without segregating out the Post-Apocalyptic. I kinda wish I had, but since I haven't read the whole list it's hard to do now without knowing for sure.
