Cause and Effect in Delirium

Author's Note: This is about the cause and effect in a book I read called Delirium. I chose this book to do my cause and effect assignment because it had a clear example on the topic.

The cause in Delirium is how the people that run the society don't want people to feel the emotion of love. The people that live in that area have to follow the rules, or you will die because of the sickness or be cured immediately. This is the cause of the story because people will try to break the rules of the society that they live in.

The effect in the book is that two people fall in love and hide whenever they want to meet because they will be caught and cured. They don't want to be cured because when you're cured, you never feel the strong emotion of love or anything, for that matter. Not over excitement, not depression, not love. So they need to hide from the society and make sure they never find out.
