No one is born from parents anymore; instead, people are cultivated in large Breeding centres, from different castes deciding which tasks they’re going to do in life. The perfect drugs, called soma, are being every week to keep everyone happy, the economy is controlled to perfection, and promiscuity is considered a virtue.
CHAPTER FOUR Less than a light year away, on Earths only moon, sat Colin’s imperial mothership and inside it, Colin on his throne.

When the group arrives at this rundown cafe at the edge of a cliff, Kathy mentions, “Things cheered up considerably, though, once we arrived in our seaside town” (Ishiguro 148).

Thornton Wilder develops the theme that small details in life should be cherished throughout Our Town through the view of dead people. Firstly, Mrs. Gibbs is advising Emily on what day of her life to revisit and suggests Emily to, “Choose the least important day in your life. It will be important enough,” (100). It can be inferred that Mrs. Gibbs means that a day with nothing “important” can still be appreciated and enjoyed because of all the small details in that day. Here, Wilder is emphasizing that those small details are important and for that reason should be cherished.
