Courtland Lewis has scoured the planet to bring together the most
talented faction members, factionless, and even a few from the
Bureau to discuss the philosophy of Divergent. Divergent and
Philosophy begins by examining the personal struggles that all
people face at some time: What sort of person should I be? What if
I find out my life is a lie? What do I owe my parents? Am I normal?
Once readers have finished answering these questions they're ready
for the "choosing ceremony." Part two examines each faction,
looking at its virtues, vices, and other features that will help
readers pick the "right" faction. This part gives readers a glimpse
into what it's like to be faced with the most important decision of
our lives, the one that will forever determine who we are. Part
three takes a step takes a step back, in order to question
Chicago's ordering of society. Chicago is on the verge of
revolution, but is this the result of the faction system itself, or
is it the people within the factions that are behind the social
discord? Part four shifts the focus individuals and those who hold
power. Part five tells us how to recognize injustice.
