=Monster Theme=

Theme is the main idea of a story and what the author is trying to say. Theme holds the story together. In the book Monster, one theme that comes out is the theme of injustice.The main character, Steve is arrested because the authorities believe that Steve was involved with the murder of Mr. Nesbitt. Based on the facts in the book, Steve didn’t really commit a crime. For example, injustice is shown in the story is when Steve says “I didn’t fight Mr. Nesbitt. I didn’t take any money from him.” Steve just wants people to believe him, but no one really does. At the end, Steve is proven innocent and Steve finally gets some justice.

The setting helps communicate the theme. The book takes place in New York after the murder of Mr. Nesbitt. It first takes place in early morning in the Manhattan Detention Center. Throughout the book, the setting changes to different places before and after the crime. For example, one of Steve flashbacks takes place in his movie making class before the murder of Mr. Nesbitt. The theme of injustice ties into the setting because there is a lot of injustice in the city of New York and in the Manhattan Detention Center.
