Dead Poets Society by N.H. Kleinbaum
3.0
Todd Anderson and his friends at Welton Academy can hardly believe how different life is since their new English teacher, the flamboyant John Keating, has challenged them to ‘make your life extraordinary!’
Inspired by Keating, the boys resurrect the ‘Dead Poets Society’, a secret club where free from the constraints and expectations of school and parents, they let their passion run wild.
But the Dead Poets Society soon realize that their newfound freedom can lead to tragic consequences. Can the club and the individuality It inspires survive the pressure from authorities determined to destroy their dreams?
My Rating - 3.5/5 stars
This book is one of the rare cases in which the novel was based on the movie.
Both the book and movie ‘Dead Poets Society’ were published and produced in 1989.
I loved this movie so much and enjoyed the book! I really wish the book was longer though. It was only 176 pages, and I felt like it could’ve been extended and made much better if it was longer and had some events that weren’t in the movie.
Regardless of this, I highly enjoyed this book and recommend it to anyone who liked the movie or just wants a quick read.
