The protagonist, Jonas, is the new Receiver of Memories that has to receive memories of the past from the current Giver. Jonas doesn’t realize that the community needs these memories until he realizes that Release is euthanasia, and the community don’t even know what they are doing is wrong.

And everything is just the same grey hue? Well, this is the world that Jonas, the main character of The Giver, written by Lois Lowry, lives in.
