This book, I believe, is mostly about this theme, how
society affects individuals. Many times throughout the book, the characters are
forced by society, to make a choice. One example of this is when Tris and the
other kids are forced to choose their faction. I know I wouldn't want to make
that big of a decision, a decision that changes your entire life forever and
decides what you do for the rest of your life. The back cover of the book even
says "One choice decides your friends. One choice defines your beliefs.
One choice determines your loyalties-forever." This shows how society
changes Tris because she is forced to leave her family behind for something she
is good at, she is forced to make the decision to be brave and change her
factions, knowing she might not be able to see them ever again. She is forced
to change and she goes from being selfless to being a fighter, being brave.
