Conformity and Rebellion. Two words that almost always go together. When you have conformity, you get rebellion, and when there is rebellion, it’s always against conformity. Which of these two actions is better? It all depends on the situation. In “The Ones Who Walk Away from Omelas” and “The Lottery”, we find many examples of both conformity and rebellion taking place. Many times, rebellion takes place only when the person rebelling is trying to escape their own problems, as can be seen in these stories.
In “Omelas”, by Ursula K. Le Guin, an idea of a perfect place is presented. The people of this community seem to have everything they wished for. They have peace, unity, and happiness. It seems as all is well with them.
