The Debate Over YA Fiction


If you are an enthusiast of young adult literature, you may enjoy this NPR article by Linda Holmes. It's pretty interesting, and she makes some good points. Salient Quotes:
"If we're speaking thematically, The Hunger Games has nothing on Lord Of The Flies."
And:
"I also took an entire class in high school were we read books about killing your family, double suicide, drowning, being murdered in your bed ... it was called 'Shakespeare,' I believe."
