As a former teacher of dystopian fiction, all I can think about right now is the ending of Fahrenheit 451 with the overwhelming manhunt.
Of course the crime that the protagonist was guilty of in the novel was reading books and he actually escaped to safety...
The unprecedented manhunt and multi-city lockdown that is going out right now in Boston is scary and quite different. I just hope that the outcome is not the same.
Sigh...
How sad that the older brother has a wife and a three year old daughter...
