5/23/2023 0 Comments Red Queen by Victoria Aveyard![]() This injury acts as a symbol for the exploitation of the Reds by the Silvers and the horrible conditions the Reds are forced to work in in order to support their families. Mare's sister's hand is crushed while she is working, which makes her unable to work and provide for her family. She is a Red with power, and her red blood is emphasized over and over again to show that the color of her blood makes her unique within her world. The color red is a motif that shows up throughout the novel (including in its title, Red Queen), to show the significance of Mare's unique heritage. The wealthy (Silvers) have more privilege and think they're better than the poor (Reds), reflecting the way that the rich view the poor in our world. The class system in Red Queen acts as an allegory for the class system in our world: a small number of very wealthy people hold power over and exploit a larger number of very poor people.
