Take note teenage readers writers: bravery and political awareness - TopicsExpress



          

Take note teenage readers writers: bravery and political awareness start early, and suppression is always lurking just around the corner. Our duty is not just to describe the horrors of the past – it’s to make the evil and errors of the past relevant to modern readers so that we can guard against it in the present. It is our duty to let young people know that evil is possible in everyone – in yourself as well as in your neighbour – but also that our world is in our own control. Evil is not a cause for paranoia. It is the reason we speak out. It is a reason to write. *** US-UK New York Times bestselling author of teen novels Elizabeth Wein at writingteennovels/2013/09/01/writing-evil-characters-in-teen-novels-by-elizabeth-wein.
