Actually, I started reading this book to improve my English level. When I first found it, I thought it was written for children. Also, in the first part of the book, everything seemed very ordinary. But as I continued reading, I saw that the people in the book were actually living in a utopian world — they had no real feelings, they didn’t know colors, they couldn’t understand death, and they lived in a robotic and dull world. At that moment, I realized this was not really a children’s book, and that felt quite sad.
The idea of people living in a place where there are no real emotions, no problems, and no uncertainty sounds exciting at first. But later, I felt how scary it is to live in a place where people can’t see the truth and don’t feel like real human beings. Jonas and the Giver had to carry all the memories and pain of the society. Then Jonas decided to run away to wake the people up and save them, which was very sad and emotional.
In short, when we see a society where everything — even people’s future — is controlled from one center, it may look perfect. But when we understand that there are no human emotions or truths in that world, even the problems we face in real life start to feel more meaningful and beautiful.
