Sure, The Giver is a masterpiece. The pacing is perfect, the narrative drive forward is tantalizing, the characters finely drawn, and a perfect pitch tone.
But I must admit, the end disappoints ; in book marked by incredible precision and detail, Lowry drops us off into a world of cold and fog. Why? It is like a promise has been broken.
What should she have done at the end? I don’t know. I just sense the conclusion does not justify the brilliant work that comes before it.
