Divergent
official illustrated movie companion
"Experience the making of the Divergent movie in this lush, oversize volume featuring more than a hundred and fifty full-color photos from the film, including many that have never been seen before. Also featured are illuminating interviews with author Veronica Roth, actors Shailene Woodley, Theo James, Miles Teller, director Neil Burger, co-screenwriter Evan Daugherty, and more. Discover what inspired Veronica Roth's book Divergent, and follow its journey from national bestseller to a spectacular action-packed film that simmers with tension, suspense, and romance. Bringing to life the cinematic world of Divergent required the vision of producers, writers, directors, actors--and countless behind-the-scenes talent who transformed the pages of a book into a remarkable visual experience. These collaborators breathed life into every detail of this dystopian world--creating not only the Dauntless Pit, the Erudite Headquarters, and the Abnegation village but most of all its extraordinary inhabitants. Costume designers' sketches and 3D concept art are just some of the visual treats in this insider's look at the making of the film"--Back cover.
Beyond its central premise, the book can be read through the connected lenses of Science Fiction, Nonfiction, Fiction. Those themes offer useful points of attention as the characters, ideas, or world develop, especially where the book complicates the expectations of its primary category.

Three questions to carry with you
- Which familiar part of life becomes easier to see through this imagined world?
