After The Ruin, a colorless equalitarian society is formed without
memories and everyone follows rules established by the Chief Elder and
the Elders. The population uses drugs to stay happy and on the day of
the graduation, the teenagers leave their childhood and are assigned to a
career chosen by the Elders. Jonas lives with his parents and has two
best friends, Fiona and Asher, and he feels different from his friends.
He is assigned to be the Receiver of Memories and he is trained by his
mentor, The Giver, who gives memories of the world before The Ruin.
Jonas learns emotions such as love and fear and the concept of family.
When he discovers that the baby Gabriel that he loves as a brother will
be eliminated, he decides to change his society but the Chief Elder will
do anything to stop him.
