Suzanne collins's life while writing the hunger games
She was lying in bed looking for a channel between reality TV programs and actual war coverage. One channel, there was a group of young people competing and on the other show there was a group of young people fighting in an actual war. The thought of these two shows were mixed together in a very unsettling way and that how the story became an idea .
Collins/Katniss comparison
Suzanne collins and Katniss everdeen are pretty comparable but not by how their lives are but their morals. Throughout the series of the hunger games Katniss everdeen shows that the hunger games are not necessary at all and she argues that all the time and she rebels against the districts that the hunger games don't help anyone its just a form of entertainment. This is comparable with suzanne collins because when she was younger her own father talked to her about necessary and unnecessary wars "if we introduce kids to these ideas earlier, we could get a dialogue about war going earlier and possibly it would lead to more solutions," she says. "i just feel it isn't discussed, not the way it should be.
