The Giver Supernatural

People often imagine that a dystopian society is vastly diverse from our modern day society, but in fact they are very similar. Sure there are a few differences not limited to, rules, family, and how the societies are governed. One prime example of a dystopian fiction is The Giver, written by Lois Lowry, which takes place in a town that is governed by a circle of people with no emotions or feelings. In our modern society we have multiple rule guides called the Constitution, Bill of Rights, and the Declaration of Independence.

It was mid-December in the North Pole during the time that Rudolph catches Emma the elf eating candy canes nonstop. Rudolph knows that her behaviour is wrong so when Santa Claus comes to feed the reindeer their peppermint flavoured gingerbread pellets that night he tells Santa what he saw. As he hears this he becomes cross with the elf. Santa has a wish to talk with Emma regarding the candy cane scenario but she’s sound asleep. He doesn 't wake her up because the night is soon to be over.

Not the little cute snowflakes you see on TV while watching your favorite holiday movies, but lots of snow. It was the kind of snow that is unimaginable at least to me, at that time of my life. I have never seen it snow before, and as the cold white snow blows along the road and sticks to the window I holler oh my God.

Jonas was so traumatized by everything he has seen and learned that he finally decides to run away. This is why I believe that the theme of The Giver by Lois Lowry is no one is the same. Firstly, Jonas learns what colors are. He starts seeing the color red the most.

Jonas’s society is extremely different than the one we live in today. The first difference between The Giver and our society is the number of family members. In the book they can only have two kids, one boy and one girl; however, in America we are free to have as many kids as we would want. The second

Just think. Nobody has any knowledge of the past. You do not know what color is, you have no emotion, and everybody is the same. The world that you live in is colorless, emotionless, drab, even lifeless. This is the type of world that Jonas and The Giver live in.

That night Jonas is getting ready to leave when he decides to grab Gabe, a baby that his family has been raising. Because Jonas has Gabe he decides to take his father's bike so he can put Gabe on the back of it. Jonas has no time to go get the giver so he leaves him. Jonas and gabe ride the bike in the night

The cliffhanger ending is more powerful because we are left to wonder Jonas and Gabriel’s fate and we don’t have anything decided for us. In chapter 23 Lowry writes, “For the first time he heard something that he knew to be music. He heard people signing”(179). Since Jonas had never heard music before it makes us wonder how he knows what it is. He could be dead and be hearing music or he could be having a memory from the Giver but we don’t really know.

One memory change that. Jonas saw the Giver’s favorite memory. The memory was about Christmas. It showed love, warmth, and grandparents. At the end of the book Jonas became affectionate.

The Giver and Jonas were tired of being the only ones who have to keep the memories and feel the pain. Therefore, does Jonas leave the community so the memories will bit by bit, come back to the citizens of the community. Firstly, I would point out that the community in “The Giver” has a lot of resemblance with the political ideology we call communism. When we look at the history of the word, Karl Marx’s ideology has been an inspiration to a lot of political party’s throughout the centuries, for instance communism.

was mentioned in the text. Jonas was going to be in a tremendous amount of trouble for escaping the community in the first place, but because he took Gabriel he was going to be in even more trouble than before. Jonas learned that to give Gabriel a

“Even the Matching of Spouses was given such a weighty consideration that sometimes an adult who applied to receive a spouse waited months or even years before a Match was approved and announced” (Lowry 48). In the novel The Giver by Lois Lowry, there is a community where there is almost no decision or say in any situations, you wake up tomorrow, and it is the same as yesturday. Nothing is ever unique or different, it’s always the same. Every choice is made for them, every move the make being decided for them. This is how it was in the community, everything was the same always.

The descriptive short sentence of the setting being during “A winter day,” again emphasizes the normalcy of the situation, as well as hinting that the setting of the story takes place around Christmas time. The

The day was just after my brother’s birthday and we had just finished celebrating his birthday. My brother was more surprised, however, by the amount of snow that covered the yards outside. We both awoke to a sight much more impressive than that of December, a white landscape obscuring everything laying on the ground, including the cars. My brother and I changed faster than firemen getting ready for a rescue, as we ran outside to see the fascinating snow that surrounded our neighborhood.

The day did get warmer and since so many projects were on hold there were lots of people at the fire watching the day go by. Snowball fights broke out between several forts which had been built. Everyone had either built a snowman or helped with one. The compound yard was soon full of snow people.
