I think "The Giver Quartet Omnibus Deluxe Collector's Edition" is a great example of how to properly incorporate themes in stories and what it would look like in practice. I do have fond memories of the story back when I was a young boy, because I found the setting to be peculiar.

The story is very basic, telegraphed in a lot of ways (it's for children, to be fair). However, it does a great job of staying thematically on point, it also includes questions that English teachers would ask...

I like reading such works because it helps remind me of the basics when it comes to writing.

With luck, I might do that since my failed adventure with FreeBSD bore no fruit and only more questions.
