Introducing Dystopia in The Hunger Games_Episode 22
In our twenty-second episode, we dive into Suzanne Collins’ The Hunger Games, exploring the author behind the phenomenon and the dystopian genre that reshapes ancient questions for a modern age. We discuss the world-building, the moral frameworks, and the timeless appeal of stories that challenge power, justice, and survival.
