Summary
The Hidden Truth: A Journey Beyond Perfection
In a seemingly utopian future, war, hunger, and pain are relics of the past. Every need is met, and every role meticulously assigned by the Committee of Elders. Twelve-year-old Jonas accepts this world without question, until he’s chosen as the Receiver of Memory.
Suddenly, the facade of perfection crumbles. Guided by the Giver, Jonas uncovers the dark secrets and suppressed emotions that underpin his community’s tranquility.
