I finished “The Giver” it was a good book and it it had themes. The most important theme in my opinion was individuality and freedom of choice. The society people live in the book made it so
That they could not be themselves( having to take a pill that suppressed their emotions) and a higher up person choosing what every individual would be for the rest of their lives. Some were chosen to be mothers where they would breed until they died, others teacher etc, our main character was givin the role of the giver. The giver is responsible for keeping memories of the past. In this time no one knows where’s we came from or what our history is like, except the giver. The main character has to relive events from humanity like the two world wars and other historical events this changes him as he has to deal with gruesome images and feeling of hatred (oh yea the memories he has he also feels, sorry if I’m not explaining well dr Preston) however you remember the pills I was talked about? The some of the memories the main character experiences are of humanity’s acts of kindness, courage and well humanity’s humanity. This makes the main character escape the dystopian utopian place and goes back to war th where the book leaves us off
