Her daughter, who had been so horrified by her reaction to the mass shooting, was the first person to read the manuscript of The Giver.

The “different” girl from college is happily living with another woman now.

Her son and German daughter-in-law now have a daughter, “who will be the receiver of all of their memories”.

The photograph she took of the old painter she interviewed who went blind was used as the cover for the first edition of the book in the USA (see p. 26).

3.2 Summaries

ZUSAMMENFASSUNG

The Giver is organised in 23 numbered chapters. The book is short, so the chapters are also quite compact. Here is a brief synopsis of the major events and developments in each chapter, with the page number of the beginning of the chapter provided.

The first seven chapters can be treated as a kind of introduction to this strange world.

The plot begins in chapter eight, when Jonas is selected as the new Receiver of Memory.

We will look more at the structure and organisation of the narrative of The Giver in the chapter in this study guide on 3.3 Structure (p. 42).

1 (p. 9)

Jonas is nearly 12 years old. He is returning home on his bicycle. At home he has dinner with his family (parents and younger sister Lily) and they go through a ritual of talking in turn about their feelings. He is feeling apprehensive about the approaching Ceremony of Twelve.

2 (p. 16)

At dinner, Jonas’ father reminisces about his own childhood and tells Jonas what he can expect from the coming Ceremony of Twelve.

3 (p. 23)

Jonas’ father brings a babyhome to care for, one with pale eyes like Jonas. Lily is excited and talks about potential Assignments. Jonas recalls an incident at school where he had been publicly shamed for taking an apple, and thinks about why the applehad caught his attention: he had seen it change in some way he can’t describe while he and Asher had been tossing it back and forth.

4 (p. 28)

Jonas goes to do his volunteer work, and looks for his friend Asher. He finds him working at the House of the Old. Jonas, Asher and another Eleven called Fionaare helping to care for the elderly (“the Old”). The woman Jonas is helping, called Larissa, tells him about a release they had celebrated that morning.

5 (p. 34)

The family’s morning begins with the ritual of Dream-telling, and Jonas tells his family about a vaguely disturbing dream he had had about the girl Fiona. The dream has sexual connotations, with Jonas’ strongest impression being “ wanting” (p. 35) the girl, and he doesn’t understand this and feels awkward and uncomfortable. Jonas’ parents tell him he has experienced “the Stirrings” (first sexual feelings of desire). The Stirringsmust be reported – which he has done – and treated with pills. His mother gives him a pill and tells him he will now be taking them for the rest of his life. Jonas is on the one hand proud to now be taking the pills like everyone else above a certain age, but he also in a way misses the warm and exciting feelings of sexual desire which he had briefly experienced in his dream.

6 (p. 38)

This important chapter contains a lot of useful information about the rituals, terminology and structures of the community, in particular the way in which family units are organised and children are integrated at the different stages of their lives into the community.

On the first day of the Ceremony the entire community attends the rituals of the children, from newborns being assigned to their new family units through to children aged eight getting their new jackets.

The second day includes the Ceremony of Twelve, which Jonas will participate in. He is nervous beforehand and waits impatiently through the Ceremonies of ages Nine to Eleven. He and Asher talk briefly about a story of a man who didn’t like his Assignment and left to join another community: Asher says he asked to go Elsewhere and was released.

7 (p. 45)

At the Ceremony of Twelves, Jonas is number 19 in the line and waits while the other Elevens are given their Assignments. His friend Asher is assigned Assistant Director of Recreation. Fiona is one place ahead of Jonas and is assigned Caretaker of the Old, which Jonas had expected. But instead of 19, the Chief Elder then calls up number 20, and Jonas is left sitting alone without being called for an Assignment.

8 (p. 51)

Jonas is embarrassed and frightened and the rest of the community is confused by what has happened. The Chief Elder apologises to everyone, including Jonas, and then says that he has not been Assigned, he has been selected – to become the next Receiver of Memory. She says that the Elders have been watching Jonas with this goal in mind for years now, and that the last potential Receiver turned out to be something of a disaster. She lists the qualities that a Receiver must possess, and which they see in Jonas, as intelligence, integrity, courage and wisdom – and a fifth quality, which is only called the Capacity to See Beyond.

Jonas is unnerved and wants to tell them they made a mistake, but when he looks at the community he again has the sensation he had as a child with the apple (see pp. 25–26), and he feels things change.

9 (p. 56)

Jonas notices that people treat him slightly differently afterwards. His parents are uncomfortable when he asks them what happened with the last person to be selected as Receiver, and what went wrong.

Like everyone else in the Ceremony, Jonas has been given instructions for his new role in the community: but he has a list of eight instructionswhich will immediately change his life. Some of his instructions directly contradict everything he has been taught, such as number 8, “You may lie”. This instruction, more than the others, disturbs him.

10 (p. 61)

As instructed, Jonas goes to the House of the Old next morning for his first day of training. He meets the current Receiver of Memory, who begins to explain to him what he will be expected to do. As the Receiver begins to explain that he must share with Jonas all the memories of the whole world, Jonas struggles with the concept – completely new to him – that there is something outside his community, and that there was a time before his time now. “I thought there was only us. I thought there was only now.” (p. 65.14–15)

The Receiver begins Jonas’ lessons by using a metaphor containing many concepts with which Jonas is unfamiliar (snow, sled, downhill) and then transmitting the memories which contain these concepts.

11 (p. 67)

The Receiver gives Jonas the memory of riding downhill through snow on a sled. The memory has now left him and has been given to Jonas: but, as he explains, it is only one memory of one hill, one snow storm, one sled ride. There are countless others in his memories.
