What We Think

If only all modern children’s books stuck this close to classic storytelling! ‘The Vile Village’ offers eccentric, smart, and genuinely whimsical adventure with no modern ideological baggage. A breath of non-woke air in a sea of contemporary preachiness.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

The narrative prioritizes quirky storytelling and genuine character development over identity politics. The focus remains on the orphaned siblings’ cleverness and resilience, with no apparent forced representation based on modern identity standards.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

Traditional family ties and bonds are central to the story, with loyalty and love highlighted. There's no overt undermining of family, tradition, or morality, if anything, the book encourages critical thinking about authority but doesn't cross into anti-traditional preaching.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

Opinions and motivations among characters are varied and sometimes ridiculous, serving the satire. There's no sense of ideological monoculture or villainization of dissenting views. It's more about the absurdity of adult incompetence than preaching.
