Hello Writers!
Today we examine some of the predominant themes found in Dead Poets Society. These are common for most as we transition from our teen years into adulthood. Regardless of generation - writers have been exploring these ideas for a long time. We get to now contribute our own verse - our own voice. Find your most authentic way to interact with this material. It is important.
