Holes-Why is it a good novel for teenagers? Essay -- English Literatur

Holes-Why is it a good novel for teenagers?In this essay I intend to look at why the phonograph record Holes, is a goodnovel for teenagers to read. Written by Louis Sachar in 1998, it is amodern novel telling readers a story about the life experiences of ayoung boy called Stanley. The story revolves around Stanley beingunfairly acquitted for a crime leading to him being faced to cope withlife at a juvenile detention centre. Along with this main plot, thereare several other underlying smaller plots that contribute towards thesuccess of the story as a whole.I will examine the various reasons for why this book would appeal toteenagers.There are three simultaneous plots, which creates more excitement and distrust for the reader. But the main theme is how young StanleyYelnats IV comes to redeem the curse which was visited upon hisgreat-great-grandfather and all the Yelnats family, through thegenerations, by Madame Zeroni. Stanley, the main character in the story, is falsely criminate of stealing a pair of trainers, which had been donated to help raisemoney for the homeless shelter. These trainers werent any ordinarytrainers they had belonged to the most famous baseball player inhistory, Clyde Livingstone. Stanley isnt too disheartened when he issent away from his family to a juvenile delinquents camp (Camp GreenLake) for a crime he did not commit, due to his familys long knownhistory of bad luck. Stanley doesnt blame the judge for falselyconvicting him, but he blames the whole fortuity on hisno-good-dirty-rotten-pig-stealing-great-great-grandfather. ForStanley, his troubles are just a natural part of being a Yelnats,which is a factor of life that he has become accustomed to.... ...n divers(prenominal) partsof the world, not all teenagers whitethorn be treated in the same way Stanleyhad been. This is why it might be interesting to see what antitheticparts of the world are like.The story isnt really realistic either, because a teenager wouldntreally expect such e vents to take adjust in this day and age. Ateenager may want to read something that could happen to them, butfrom someone elses point of view. The finding of treasure may seem tobe an old-fashioned task and hence may not create the excitement thatit was aimed for.Despite some not so appealing events in the story, I would recommendthis book to all teenagers due to its suspense and excitementelements. The reader becomes intrigued to reach the ending, which isvery successful in connecting all the sub plots to uncover theconclusion to the treasure and Stanleys family history.
