Omelas
Instructions
Please write in coherent paragraphs and spellcheck your work though and come up with a good title. For this reading response, I want you to write about “The Ones Who Walk Away From Omelas” by Ursula K. LeGuin.
What is the underlying theme or conflict in this story? How does it achieve its effect? Would you walk away from Omelas? Why or why not? What is the story’s fundamental theme or conflict? How does it accomplish this? Would you give up on Omelas? What is your reasoning?
Consider these questions (no need to cover them all, but pick at least one), in a brief, informal response.
