On one channel she observed people competing on a and on another she saw footage of the. The two 'began to blur in this very unsettling way' and the idea for the book was formed. The of served as a major basis for the story, with Collins describing Katniss as a futuristic Theseus, and Roman games provided the framework. The sense of loss that Collins developed through her father's service in the was also an influence on the story, with Katniss having lost her father at age 11, five years before the story begins. Collins stated that the deaths of young characters and other 'dark passages' were the most difficult parts of the book to write, but that she had accepted that passages such as these were necessary to the story. She considered the moments where Katniss reflects on happier moments in her past to be more enjoyable.

As punishment for a past failed against the Capitol, which resulted in the obliteration of District 13, one boy and one girl between the ages of 12 and 18 from each of the 12 remaining districts are selected by an annual to participate in the Hunger Games, a contest in which the 'tributes' must fight to the death in an outdoor arena until only one remains.The story is narrated by 16-year-old from District 12, who volunteers for the 74th Hunger Games in place of her 12-year-old sister,. The male tribute is, a former schoolmate of Katniss who once gave her bread from his family's bakery when her family was starving.

In the days leading up to the Games in the Capitol, they are given advice by their drunken mentor, the sole living District 12 victor of the Hunger Games; chaperone; and various stylists to enhance their public perception to get potential sponsors, who will send potentially life-saving gifts during the Games. Katniss's stylist, designed special costumes for Katniss and Peeta that set them apart from the tributes when introduced to the public. During their evaluation by the Gamemakers, Katniss unexpectedly gets the highest score among the others. Meanwhile, Rue, the petite 12-year-old girl tribute from District 11, follows Katniss and Peeta around during the training sessions. On the day before the games, in the televised interview with, Peeta reveals his long-unrequited love for Katniss; she is initially shocked by this and believes this is a ploy to gain sponsors, but later accepts this as sincere. Haymitch then promotes their image as '.The Games begin, and nearly half the tributes are killed in the bloodbath at the start, fighting over the weapons and supplies throughout the arena.

Rue, hiding in a nearby tree, silently alerts Katniss to a “tracker jacker” nest, which she sends it plummeting down, releasing the flying insects. Their venom kills one of the careers and drives the others away, but Katniss is stung and begins hallucinating. Peeta returns, but instead of killing her, tells her to run away. Katniss later forms an alliance with Rue, but Rue is fatally wounded by another tribute while Katniss destroys the careers' supplies.

Katniss kills Rue's killer with an arrow, and accompanies Rue as she dies and spreads flowers over the body to show her defiance against the Capitol. In gratitude, Rue's district sends Katniss a loaf of bread.A rule change is announced, allowing the tributes from the same district to win as a pair. Katniss finds and nurses a wounded Peeta (who later revealed that he formed an alliance with the careers to protect Katniss), acting the part of a girl in love to gain gifts. When the Gamemakers send a delivery of what each contestant needs most, Katniss risks her life to obtain medicine for Peeta. She is intercepted by a career tribute Clove, who gloats over Rue's death and tries to kill Katniss, but is killed by Thresh, the male District 11 tribute, who spares Katniss for Rue's sake. The medicine saves Peeta's life, and they both spend time hunting and collecting food.Katniss and Peeta become the last two survivors, but the Gamemakers revoke the rule change to force one to kill the other for a dramatic finale.

In defiance, Katniss prepares to consume the poisonous 'nightlock' berries with Peeta.

Although both of them receive a hero's welcome as a couple, Katniss is warned by Haymitch that the Capitol may take action against her for her defiance. Along the way back to District 12, Peeta is heartbroken to learn that Katniss' actions were part of a calculated ploy to gain sympathy.

Katniss, however, is unsure of her own feelings and her future.Themes. The Hunger Games author Suzanne Collins in 2010In an interview with Collins, it was noted that the novel 'tackles issues like, starvation, oppression, and the effects of war among others.' The novel deals with the struggle for self-preservation that the people of Panem face in their districts and the Hunger Games in which they must participate.

The citizens' starvation and their need for resources, both in and outside of the arena, create an atmosphere of helplessness that the main characters try to overcome in their fight for survival. Katniss needs to hunt to provide food for her family, resulting in the development of skills that are useful to her in the Games (such as her proficiency with the bow and arrow), and represents her rejection of the Capitol's rules in the face of life-threatening situations. On the subject of the Games' parallels with popular culture, Darren Franich of writes that the book 'is an incisive satire of reality television shows', and that the character of Cinna 'almost seems like a contestant on a fascist version of, using Katniss' outfits as a vehicle to express potentially dangerous ideas.' The choices the characters make and the strategies they use are often morally complex.

The tributes build a personality they want the audience to see throughout the Games. Library journal names the major themes of The Hunger Games as 'government control, ', and personal independence.'

63rd Hunger Games

The trilogy's theme of power and downfall, similar to that of Shakespeare's, was pointed out by its publisher. Laura Miller of finds the author's stated premise of the Games –an exercise in propaganda and a 'humiliating as well as torturous. punishment' for a failed uprising against the Capitol many years earlier– to be unconvincing.

'You don't demoralize and dehumanize a subject people by turning them into celebrities and coaching them on how to craft an appealing persona for a mass audience.' But the story works much better if the theme is vicissitudes of high school and 'the adolescent social experience'. Miller writes:'The rules are arbitrary, unfathomable, and subject to sudden change. A brutal social hierarchy prevails, with the rich, the good-looking, and the athletic lording their advantages over everyone else. To survive you have to be totally fake. Adults don't seem to understand how high the stakes are; your whole life could be over, and they act like it's just some 'phase'!

Everyone's always watching you, scrutinizing your clothes or your friends and obsessing over whether you're having sex or taking drugs or getting good enough grades, but no one cares who you really are or how you really feel about anything.' Donald Brake from and pastor Andy Langford state that the story has Christian themes, such as that of, which is found in Katniss' substitution for her younger sister, analogous to the sacrifice of Jesus as a for the. Brake, as well as another reviewer, Amy Simpson, both find that the story also revolves around the theme of, which is exemplified in the 'incorruptible goodness of Katniss' sister, Primrose.'

Simpson also points to events similar to the; in the Games, 'Christ figure' Peeta Mellark is stabbed after warning Katniss to flee for her life, and is then buried in the ground and placed in a cave for three days before emerging with a new lease on life. Further, she finds that the Christian image of the is used throughout The Hunger Games; in the story, Peeta gives Katniss a loaf of bread, saving the girl and her family from starvation.

In a review for The New York Times, wrote that the novel was 'brilliantly plotted and perfectly paced', and that 'the considerable strength of the novel comes in Collins's convincingly detailed world-building and her memorably complex and fascinating heroine.'

At that point, it was mentioned to me, and I asked my editor if I should read it. He said: 'No, I don't want that world in your head. Just continue with what you're doing'.' Susan Dominus of The New York Times reports that 'the parallels are striking enough that Collins's work has been savaged on the blogosphere as a baldfaced ripoff' of Battle Royale but argued that 'there are enough possible sources for the plot line that the two authors might well have hit on the same basic setup independently.' Noted that the reality TV 'badlands' were similar to Battle Royale, as well as his own novels. The story has also been compared to the 1965 Italian cult film by, based on 's 1953 short story '.

Film adaptation. Main article:In March 2009, Lions Gate Entertainment entered into a co-production agreement for The Hunger Games with 's production company Color Force, which had acquired worldwide distribution rights to the novel a few weeks earlier.

Collins' agent Jason Dravis remarked that 'they Lionsgate had everyone but the valet call us' to help secure the franchise.

Intending the film to have a rating, Collins adapted the novel for film herself, in collaboration with screenwriter Billy Ray and director Gary Ross. The screenplay remains extremely faithful to the original novel, with Ross saying he 'felt the only way to make the film really successful was to be totally subjective' in its presentation of events, echoing Collins' use of in the novel.Twenty-year-old actress was chosen to play Katniss Everdeen. Though Lawrence was four years older than the character when filming began, Collins felt the role demanded 'a certain maturity and power' and said she would rather the actress be older than younger.

She added that Lawrence was the 'only one who truly captured the character I wrote in the book' and that she had 'every essential quality necessary to play Katniss.' Lawrence, a fan of the books, took three days to accept the role, initially intimidated by the size of the production.
