R has no memories, no identity, and no pulse,
but he has dreams. After experiencing a Perry’s memories while eating his
brain, R makes an unexpected choice that begins an awkward and strangely sweet
relationship with the victim's human girlfriend. Julie is full of life and has
a colorful personality compared to the dreary and gray landscape that surrounds
R. His decision to protect her will transform not only R, but his fellow Dead,
and perhaps their whole lifeless world. Warm Bodies is about being alive, being
dead, and the blurry line in between which I find interesting because as R
changes over time, it makes the reader feel that he is more human.
