Unwind
"Unwind" is a young adult dystopian novel by Neal Shusterman that explores a future where unwanted teenagers can be "unwound," meaning their bodies are harvested for organs and tissues. The story follows three main characters—Connor, Risa, and Lev—who are trying to escape this fate. They each have different reasons for wanting to survive, and their journeys intertwine as they seek freedom.
The novel raises ethical questions about the value of life and the consequences of societal decisions. It delves into themes of identity, autonomy, and the moral implications of treating individuals as disposable. Through their experiences, the characters challenge the system that allows unwinding to occur.
