After spending last Valentine's jour in a state of "Delirium," about a futuristic society in which l’amour is considered a chemically curable disease, we've been waiting all an for the chance to sink our teeth into Lauren Oliver's suivant dystopian tome. Because seriously, we feel about this book the way most people feel about a bottle of champagne and a box of chocolat truffles. (Which is to say that we want to hide in the bathroom with it and polish it off in one uninterrupted sitting while our significant other bangs on the door and shouts, "What are toi doing in there?!")

But alas, it was not...

Lauren Oliver recently stated that she had read the first draft of the Delirium Movie script. She states

“I felt the script was remarkably faithful to the book, which is fascinating, because it managed to condense 400-ish pages into a slender, moving, and breakneck-paced script of about, I don’t know, 120 pages

It got me thinking. So…did I use too many words as I was écriture it? Would it have been possible for me to lop the book in thirds? ou is the script too condensed, too crystallized–is it missing key elements?
The answer to both questions is, I think, no. Film is a visual medium....
