Product Description
Against all odds, Katniss Everdeen has survived the Hunger Games twice. But now that she's made it out of the bloody arena alive, she's still not safe. The Capitol is angry. The Capitol wants revenge. Who can they think should pay for that unrest? Katniss. And what's worse, President Snow has made it clear that nobody else remains safe and secure either. Not Katniss's family, not her friends, not individuals of District 12. Powerful and haunting, this thrilling final installment of Suzanne Collins's groundbreaking The Hunger Games trilogy promises to get one in the most mentioned books from the year.
A Q&A with Suzanne Collins, Author of Mockingjay (The Final Book of The Hunger Games)
Q: You have said in the start that The Hunger Games story was intended like a trilogy. Did it genuinely end the way you planned it from your beginning?

A: Very much so. While I didn't know every detail, of course, the arc of the story from gladiator game, to revolution, to war, towards the eventual outcome remained constant through the writing process.

Q: We understand you worked for the initial screenplay for any film to be according to The Hunger Games. What could be the biggest difference between writing a novel and writing a screenplay?

A: There are several significant differences. Time, for starters. When you find yourself adapting a novel into a two-hour movie you can not take everything with you. The story has to be condensed to suit the modern form. Then there's the question of how best to look at a magazine told in the first person and offer tense and transform it in to a satisfying dramatic experience. In the novel, you don't ever leave Katniss for any second and are privy to any or all of her thoughts so you will need a method to dramatize her inner world and to create it feasible for other characters to exist outside her company. Finally, you have the challenge of the way to present the violence while still maintaining a PG-13 rating so that your core audience can view it. A lot of the situation is acceptable on the page that may not be over a screen. But how certain moments are depicted may ultimately be in the director's hands.

Q: Have you been capable to consider future projects while working on The Hunger Games, or are you immersed inside world you happen to be currently creating so fully which it is just too hard to think about new ideas?

A: I've a couple of seeds of ideas going swimming in my head but--given a great deal of of my focus remains on The Hunger Games--it will likely be awhile before one fully emerges and that i can begin to develop it.

Q: The Hunger Games is once a year televised event through which one boy then one girl from each in the twelve districts is instructed to participate in a fight-to-the-death on live TV. What do you believe the appeal of reality television is--to both kids and adults?

A: Well, they're often setup as games and, like sporting events, there's an interest in seeing who wins. The contestants are generally unknown, which means they are relatable. Sometimes they have very talented people performing. Then there's the voyeuristic thrill—watching people being humiliated, or taken to tears, or suffering physically--which I've found very disturbing. There's also the possibility for desensitizing the audience, to ensure that after they see real tragedy playing out on, say, the news, this doesn't happen contain the impact it should.

Q: If you were made to compete within the Hunger Games, so what can you believe your personal skill would be?

A: Hiding. I'd be scaling those trees like Katniss and Rue. Since I became trained in sword-fighting, I guess my best hope will be to get hold of a rapier if there were one available. But the reality is I'd probably get about a four in Training.

Q: What does one hope readers will come away with after they read The Hunger Games trilogy?

A: Questions about how exactly elements with the books could possibly be relevant within their own lives. And, if they're disturbing, the things they might do about them.

Q: What were some of your favorite novels when you are a teen?

A: A Tree Grows in Brooklyn by Betty Smith
The Heart Is a Lonely Hunter by Carson McCullers
Nineteen Eighty Four by George Orwell
Anna Karenina by Leo Tolstoy
Slaughterhouse-Five by Kurt Vonnegut
A Wrinkle in Time by Madeleine L’Engle
Lord from the Flies by William Golding
Boris by Jaapter Haar
Germinal by Emile Zola
Dandelion Wine by Ray Bradbury

Gr 7 Up–The final installment of Suzanne Collins's trilogy sets Katniss in one more Hunger Game, but this time around it can be for world control. While it is really a clever twist around the original plot, it indicates that there's less focus for the individual characters and more on political intrigue and large scale destruction. That said, Carolyn McCormick will continue to breathe life right into a less vibrant Katniss by showing her despair both at those she feels in charge of killing and and also at her own motives and choices. This is definitely an older, wiser, sadder, and very reluctant heroine, torn between revenge and compassion. McCormick captures these conflicts by changing the pitch and pacing of Katniss's voice. Katniss is both a pawn of the rebels and the victim of President Snow, who uses Peeta to try to control Katniss. Peeta's struggles are well evidenced as part of his voice, which goes from rage to puzzlement to a unsure go back to sweetness. McCormick also makes all the secondary characters—some malevolent, others benevolent, and many confused—very real with distinct voices and agendas/concerns. She acts just like an outside chronicler in giving listeners just “the facts” but in addition respects the individuality and unique challenges of every of the main characters. A successful completion of the monumental series.–Edith Ching, University of Maryland, College Parkα(c) Copyright 2010. Library Journals LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Media Source, Inc.
