Delirium: The Complete 4 Books Collection By Lauren Oliver - Young Adult - Paperback Hodder & Stoughton
Brand: Hodder & Stoughton
The Delirium series by Lauren Oliver is a gripping and thought-provoking young adult dystopian series that explores the dangers of love in a world where it has been declared a disease. The series consists of three books: Delirium, Pandemonium, and Requiem. The first book, Delirium, introduces us to a world where love has been classified as a disease identified as amor deliria nervosa. The government has created a cure, which all citizens must receive on their eighteenth birthday, to prevent them from falling in love. The story follows the main character, Lena, as she approaches her eighteenth birthday and prepares to receive the cure. However, just weeks before her scheduled procedure, she meets a boy named Alex and begins to question everything she has been taught about love. The story is beautifully written, with richly detailed world-building and well-developed characters. The world of Delirium is both frightening and fascinating, with its strict rules and regulations, and the idea of a society without love is both intriguing and unsettling. As Lena struggles to come to terms with her feelings for Alex and her doubts about the cure, readers will be drawn into the story, rooting for her and hoping for a happy ending. In the second book, Pandemonium, the story picks up where Delirium left off, with Lena having escaped to the Wilds, a region outside of the city where love is allowed to exist. The book alternates between Lena's past and present, with flashbacks to her time in the Wilds and her current mission to infiltrate the government and help the resistance. The story is fast-paced and action-packed, with Lena facing danger and uncertainty at every turn. The characters are well-developed, and the relationships between them are complex and nuanced. The themes of love, loss, and sacrifice are explored in depth, making for a deeply emotional and satisfying read. The final book in the series, Requiem, brings the story to a dramatic conclusion as Lena and the resistance prepare to overthrow the government and free society from the tyranny of the cure. The story is told from the perspectives of Lena and Hana, Lena's childhood friend who has undergone the cure and now lives a life of privilege in the city. The dual narrative adds depth and complexity to the story, and readers will be invested in both Lena's and Hana's journeys. The series is a must-read for fans of dystopian fiction and for anyone who loves a good love story. The world of Delirium is both frightening and fascinating, and the characters are relatable and well-developed. The themes of love, loss, and freedom are explored in depth, and the series is a powerful commentary on the dangers of allowing fear to control our lives. In addition to the three main books in the series, Lauren Oliver has also written several novellas and short stories set in the world of Delirium. These include Hana, which tells the story of Lena's best friend and what happens to her after she undergoes the cure,...
