The Giver 1993

Summary:

• The Giver is a 1993 young adult novel by Lois Lowry. It is set in a society which is at first presented as a utopian society and gradually appears more and more dystopian. The novel follows a 12-year-old boy named Jonas. The society has eliminated pain and strife by converting to "Sameness", a plan that has also eradicated emotional depth from their lives. Jonas is selected to inherit the position of "Receiver of Memory", the person who stores all the past memories of the time before Sameness, as there can be no progress without the knowledge of history. As Jonas receives the memories from The Giver, he discovers the joys and sorrows of the "real" world. He realizes that the Giver and he are the only people in the community who can feel emotions. With the Giver's help, Jonas learns to see his world and its flaws. He decides to work to change his community for the better.

  Jonas begins to teach his friends and family about the beauty and pain of the world, but they reject his ideas. Jonas decides to escape the community with the baby Gabriel, whom he has come to love, and the Giver. Jonas and the Giver travel to the neighboring communities, hoping to find a place where they can live in freedom. Along the way, Jonas discovers that the Giver is slowly dying, and he realizes that the Giver's memories will be lost forever if he dies. Jonas and the Giver eventually reach the border of the community, and Jonas releases the memories into the community, restoring color, emotion, and choice to the people. Jonas and Gabriel are able to escape to Elsewhere, a place where people can live in freedom.
