Written by Arthur Miller
A book for readers in grades 7 and up reviewed by Patrick
The Crucible by Arthur Miller is a story that takes place during the Salem Witch Trials. It is about a girl who falsely accuses a woman of being a witch for her own benefit. She uses the religious biases of the courts and others' fear of witches to her advantage in ruining a couple's lives.
I personally enjoyed this book
because of how it can relate to people now. It shows that everyone can lie and
manipulate others in order to get what they want. I also liked how it showed
the community’s panic and fear, as well as how their fear caused them to make
radical decisions.
