Charlie and the Chocolate
Factory: A Capitalist
Dystopia
No story excites children quite like Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. First
published in 1964 by English author, Roald Dahl, the story continues to
capture imaginations. 1 The premise is simple, a usually unlucky boy is one
of five winners of a worldwide competition. The prize is a once in a lifetime
opportunity to tour a world famous chocolate factory. As an added bonus,
the winning children are given a lifetime supply of sweet treats. There is
scarcely a child who would not want that.

Charlie and
Chocolate
Factory
The children are guided through the
factory tour by the colourful Mr. Willy
Wonka. However, it becomes clear
that, unbeknown to them, the kids are
being tested. As they progress, they
are picked off one by one. Giving in to
greed and unnecessary wants, each
child is painfully removed from the
tour. That is until only one boy is left:
Charlie Bucket. In a surprising twist,
for being the last man standing,
Charlie wins the entire factory. Mr.
Wonka bequeaths his company and
associated fortune to the youngest
Bucket. He admits that this was the
point of his competition all along.
This beloved story is sprinkled with ample colour and features that ought to
amaze; a chocolate river, gum that feeds you a three-course meal, and
everlasting gobstoppers!
