Some of the characters in Daz 4 Zoe choose to rebel write about:

What they rebel against

How the rebel

The results of the rebellion

The writer’s purpose in presenting these rebellious characters

Daz and Zoe live very different lives, they both have different cultures but seem to have a lot in common.

Daz and Zoe both have different attitudes towards the DS, Dred and their lifestyles.

Silverdale is a comfortable and safe place to live but is very restricted to what people can do, there are no nightclubs to go to in Silverdale they have health clubs and youth clubs. This is one of the reasons Zoe decides to go chippying, to see what life is like outside of the fences.

Zoe soon realises that Silverdale is a prison with the “light and fences and guards” keeping the subbies in and the chippies out.

The guard then asked for their destination Ned said “Fairlawn” which is the neighbouring suburb. The guard checked if they had a full tank of gas and said “stay on the freeway and keep moving”.

As they approached Rawhampton Zoe thought that it was a mess with “derelict” houses and “cracks” in the road with “weeds” Poking through.

Ned stops the car outside the “Bluemoon” club where Zoe tries her first “lobotomiser”.

Zoe had been looking at Daz all evening and then quickly turning around when she saw him look at her.

Zoe nearly got herself killed because of Larry. He saw this chippie girl and “started making signs for her to come over” to join him but the girl just smiled, a while later he shouted at the top of his voice ...
