▾Informació de l'exemplar ▾Recomanacions de LibraryThing  ▾Recomanacions dels membres  40 0Aerrin99: Both books feature central heroines living in dystopian worlds that aren't quite what they seem. They each have an engaging romance and a story that digs behind the curtain of the society their characters live in. 230 The Giver de Lois Lowry (Ynaffit27, Trojanprincess, frankiejones)Trojanprincess: The two worlds seem similar in the way that every aspect of their livee are controlled. 200 Uglies de Scott Westerfeld (kqueue)kqueue: Another story about a 'perfect' society that is deeply flawed once you look beneath the surface. Both feature strong heroines who fight against the powers in control, and both have themes of independence and free will. 121 Delirium de Lauren Oliver (foggidawn, simonie, jfoster_sf)simonie: une autre dystopie jfoster_sf: Both are powerful love stories that take place in a future where the government controls their lives. If you love Matched you will love Delirium=) 110 The City of Ember de Jeanne DuPrau (beckylynn)121 Fahrenheit 451 de Ray Bradbury (MzzArts)90 Wither de Lauren DeStefano (dizzyweasel)dizzyweasel: Dystopian novel about government control and arranged marriages. 52 1984 de George Orwell (Kostyusha)31 Un món feliç de Aldous Huxley (Phantasma)Phantasma: Similar imagined world with similar outsider view changing the opinions of some insiders. 10 Die Verratenen de Ursula Poznanski (Moongirl)Moongirl: Ebenfalls eine Distopie, welche in der Zukunft spielt. 10 For Darkness Shows the Stars de Diana Peterfreund (coxy132)coxy132: Both have dystopian romance between groups that are not supposed to fall in love 10 Relats d'un futur proper de Isaac Asimov (Phantasma)Phantasma: Many of the short stories in this Asimov collection have similar ideas to the ones mentioned in Matched, such as matching a person's abilities and personality to their job and then giving them instruction in only that job. Most of the stories in the Asimov collection are distopian futures based on technology. And, for something originally written in the 50s... still quite plausible.… (més) 10 The Selection de Kiera Cass (Aleana, BookshelfMonstrosity)BookshelfMonstrosity: Both of these series have young teens involved in a rigorous selection process to be matched with their future spouse. Political intrigue and the darker side of these dystopian societies set on a future earth add intensity and action. 11 Possession de Elana Johnson (Usuari anònim)11 Looking Backward, 2000-1887 de Edward Bellamy (Phantasma)Phantasma: A Utopian novel with a similar world-view and premise. 89 The Host de Stephenie Meyer (alesi1)alesi1: It looks like a perfect world, but is it really? 13 Girl Parts de John M. Cusick (meggyweg)

Informació del coneixement compartit en anglès. Modifica-la per localitzar-la a la teva llengua. Laat je niet meer los....  (p 96)
Do not go gentle into that good night. (p 96)
Do not go gentle into that good night,
Old age should burn and rave at close of day;
Rage, rage, against the dying of the light. (p 96)
Though wise men at their end know dark is right,
Because their words had forked no lightning they
Do not go gentle into that good night. (p 222)
at first when the rain fell
from the sky so wide and deep
it smelled like sage, my favorite smell
I went up on the plateau to watch it come
to see the gifts it always brought
but this rain changed from blue to black
and left
nothing. (p 250)
they were too much to carry
so I left them behind
for a new life, in a new place
but no one forgot who I was
I didn't
and neither did the people who watch
they watched for years
they watch now (p 256)
My birthday began with the water-
Birds and the birds of the winged trees flying my name
Above the farms and the white horses
And I rose
In rainy autumn
And walked abroad in a shower of all my days. | |

My wings aren't white or feathered; they're green, made of green silk, which shudders in the wind and bends when I move - first in a circle, then in a line, finally in a shape of my own invention. | |

Each pause, each movement when he places a piece on the black-and-gray board. I want to reach out and grab his hand and hold it to me, right over my heart, right where it aches the most. I don't know if doing that would heal me or make my heart break entirely; but either way this constant hungry waiting would be over. | |
