A theme is an idea that the author wants the reader to consider as he reads the story.

It is generally a universal life issue. It may sometimes be amoral or a lesson.

It is not the plot of the story.

Examples of Themes: Love, escape, Ambition, the supernatural.

A theme is generally shown or explored through more than one incident or element of a story.
A story may have more than one theme.
