1 - The Yooks and the Zooks live on opposite sides of a long curving wall. The Yooks wear blue clothes; the Zooks wear orange.
2 - The primary dispute between the two cultures is that the Yooks eat their bread with the butter-side up, while the Zooks eat their bread with the butter-side down. 3 - The conflict between the two sides leads to an escalating arms race, with each side trying to create weapons that are stronger and better than the other. 4 - Eventually, each side possesses a small but extremely destructive red bomb and neither has any defense against it. 5 - No resolution is reached by the book's end, with the generals of both sides on the wall poised to drop their bombs and waiting for the other to strike. * This book was written in 1984 during the Cold War era and reflects the concerns of the time that the world could be destroyed in a nuclear war. |
