About this book
At the age of twelve, Jonas, a young boy from a seemingly utopian, futuristic world, is singled out to receive special training from The Giver, who alone holds the memories of the true joys and pain of life.
Who this is for
AI · Sample
Quiet, observational, and lightly philosophical — the prose is the point. Best for readers who already enjoy literary fiction and aren't reading for plot. Frustrates anyone expecting clear stakes.
