Hello World
Just want to say hello to whole world..
The Giver is a soft science fiction novel written by Lois Lowry in 1993. It is set in a future society which is at first presented as a utopia and gradually appears more and more dystopian. The novel follows a boy named Jonas through the twelfth year of his life. Jonas society has eliminated pain and strife by converting to "Sameness", a move which has also eradicated emotional depth from their lives. Jonas is selected to inherit the position of "Receiver of Memory", the man who stores all the memories of the time before Sameness, in case they are ever needed. As Jonas receives the memories from his predecessor—the Giver—he discovers how shallow his Community life has become. Despite controversy and adverse criticism from some readers, who profess concern that the book subject material is inappropriate for young children, The Giver won the 1994 Newbery Medal and has sold more than 3.5 million copies. In Lowry native United States, it is a part of many middle-school or junior-high reading lists. The novel forms a loose trilogy with Gathering Blue (2000) and Messenger (2004), two other books set in the same future period.
