What are the common themes in books about crygentic freezing fiction?

One such book is 'Altered Carbon' by Richard K. Morgan. It features the concept of cryogenic freezing and its implications in a future where consciousness can be transferred between bodies.

One possible theme could be survival. If the 'pandora freezing' is a dangerous or challenging situation, the male character might be fighting to survive. Another theme could be mystery, like trying to figure out the cause of the 'pandora freezing'. Also, there could be themes related to relationships, perhaps forming new alliances or dealing with old enemies in this unique setting.

Love and lust is also a prevalent theme. There is often a blurring of the lines between true love and pure physical attraction. In 'The Great Gatsby', Daisy and Gatsby's relationship seems to be a mix of both. Gatsby is in love with the idea of Daisy from his past, and there is a strong element of lust in their connection as well.

Morality is another big theme. The act of cloning raises many moral questions, like whether it is right to create human - like clones. In 'The House of the Scorpion', we see the moral implications of using clones for various purposes, such as labor and organ donation.

Often, there's the theme of identity. The books might be linked to a person's identity or the identity of an unknown author. In 'The Thirteenth Tale', the mystery of the author's true identity is a central part of the story. Also, the theme of the past haunting the present is common. Old books can bring to light long - forgotten events or wrongdoings that need to be resolved in the present day, like in 'The Shadow of the Wind' where the past events related to the book keep surfacing.

Survival is a major theme. Characters often have to fight against the extreme hardships and atrocities of the Holocaust to stay alive. For example, in 'The Book Thief' by Markus Zusak, the main character Liesel Meminger has to endure the chaos of Nazi - occupied Germany while trying to preserve some semblance of normal life.

Love and relationships are also important themes. In 'The Notebook', Noah's love for Allie is unwavering despite her dementia. It shows how relationships can be tested but also how they can be a source of strength for both the person with dementia and their loved ones.

One common theme is grief. The characters in these books often go through intense feelings of loss after a miscarriage. Another theme is the strain on relationships. It can be between the couple, or with family and friends. For example, a couple may struggle to communicate their feelings to each other.

Isolation is another theme. The characters may feel cut off from the rest of society or their loved ones. In 'The Bell Jar', the protagonist feels alienated from the people around her, which exacerbates her mental turmoil. This sense of being alone makes the option of suicide seem more viable to them.

Guilt is a very common theme. Characters who engage in infidelity often feel guilty about their actions. Another is the breakdown of relationships. Their extramarital affairs usually lead to problems in their marriages or other relationships. Also, secrecy and the fear of being discovered play a major role.
