Epilogue Of The Giver

After Jonas was finished with work he and Jack walked back to there house. And JOnas heard a familiar voice behind him.

When Jonas entered the house with Gabriel everybody got up with confusion. They were wondering who Jonas and Gabriel were and why they were there.

"So, Jonas, what brought you and Gabe here?" She asked one day. So, Jonas began to to her his story. About the community and sameness, and how everything is chosen for you. About their family units and houses, climate control and their lack of emotions. He told her about the Giver, and all the emotions the two of them held. And then, last of all, Jonas told her about release. About the twin and the anger that filled him when he saw the recording. And about Gabe: why they had to leave. Laura sat quietly, and when he was done, she still said nothing. "Jonas," Laura said eventually. "I want you to know that this is your home

“You have made a terrible mistake.” The Chief Elder uttered in shock, her tongue cutting short of a hiss.

In The Giver, Jonas’ world is turned upside down when he is chosen to be the next receiver of his community. The ceremony of twelves is the last ceremony of the day. Jonas waited anxiously for his name to be called; he never hears it. The chief elder has made a mistake. Jonas now has to learn that everything he has been taught was not always the same and it ages him years.

The heavy white door of the brightly illuminated log cabin opened up. A man stood in the doorway. He was old, with a grey beard.

Lord, Elyse. "Overview of The Giver." Novels for Students. Detroit: Gale, 1998. Literature Resource Center. Web. 27 Mar. 2016. Elyse Lord is one of the many critics who describe “The Giver” as terrifying but offering “hope and a constructive view” of the Utopian world in the book. She explains that other critics praise the book with many awards such as the Newberry Medal. Lord goes on to reason that the story is favored by different readers for its complexity, symbolism, metaphors, ambiguous ending, and can be compared similarly to classic science fiction like “Brave New World” and “Fahrenheit 451.” Contradicting this statement, Lord says that ‘librarians’, ‘educators’, and ‘students’ debate “The Giver” to be censored from public schools around the world because of its graphic scenes and ideas of infanticide and euthanasia. This includes the time Jonas witnessed his father murder a baby and throw it down a trash chute in cold blood. This is ironical compared to the language, emotion, and behaviors being censored in Jonas’s ‘Utopian’ society. Lord argues this through Anna Cerbasi of Port Saint Lucie, Florida, who asked the school board to remove a book that was about a family murdering their child for crying at night and called the book inappropriate for the sixth grade. Lord raises the question of who is to “decide which books are appropriate for which children,” and argues that it cannot be answered with not one but the many books integrated in school curricula that compose

The poem, "Dulce Et Decorum Est", and chapter 15 of "The Giver" develops many underlying themes and imagery. A theme developed through the two writings is related to lightning bolts. Also, the imagery used in the two writings is very harsh-seeming to develop the theme.

Have you ever considered what happens to a person when they change? In the book 'The Giver', Jonas is similar in a few ways at the end of the book from the start. But why does this matter? When a person goes through difficult experiences, they are still the same in a lot of ways.

I eat quietly across from Jensen in a lengthy, high ceiling room with ten more long tables surrounding our own. It’s nice to be in the middle of dozens of people and them, not even care to look my way. No one here has any idea who or what I am and it’s nice. I could get used to it, but I won’t let myself, because it’s not long before I feel the burning
