This place, or rather community, is presumed to be in the future and is supposed to be a utopia where everyone conforms to the rules. The citizens have no connection with their past or what they have given up. There are only two people who can remember. One is the Giver and the other is the Receiver of Memory. These two people are the main characters in this story. The Giver is an old man that the council of elders turns to when they have a problem.
