I love "The Most Dangerous Game" because it is one of the first adventure stories. It has a bit of a humanitarian vibe to it, but essentially, the message that this story gives is "enjoy yourself." The story follows an avid hunter from America who ends up being hunted by a Russian General. The American wins, the Russian is thrown to his dogs, and they all live happily ever after. This story's progeny are staples of entertainment, from Indiana Jones to James Bond.

I must say that the short story, "The Most Dangerous Game" by Richard Connell is one of my favorite short stories as well just because once i started reading it I did not want it to end. The whole adventure and suspense themes keep every reader wanting for more. Leave a Reply. | AuthorTaran Wessells ArchivesJanuary 2013 Categories |
