The Giver Ending Analysis

The runners of sled kept cutting through the powdery snow until Jonas came to an abrupt stop at the bottom of the hill. He was confused as to how my memories were flashing so vividly because he thought they were all forgotten. He thought what he heard coming down the hill was what the Giver had called music. Jonas had Gabe clenched in his arms then he looked up to see a beautifully and vibrant colored city. He could tell Gabe saw all the colors with the decorations that they had used. He was interested because he had never seen all these colors before.

As Jonas and Gabe walked through the unfamiliar town they saw people and one of the males walked up to them. The man was tall and had a scruffy beard. With deep, but kind voice he said “Hello

stranger where are you from.” Jonas told him about his old community and how they escaped. After talking for an extensive amount of time he told Jonas to go the top of the street to see the leader of the community.
They arrived and noticed it was made of cracked bricks and it looked very old. They walked in and immediately they were greeted by a man named Zachariah. He wanted to know the whole story and how they ended up in the community. After talking Jonas asked a question “Can you see colors?” “Yes” he responded. Zachariah told him about the community and the name of it was Elsewhere. I finally knew what Elsewhere was and I knew I could live here happily with Gabe and possibly a new family. He set them up with a new house and a place to live and they began to learn about their new life.
Back at the community Lily and her parents were wondering what had happened to their “son” Jonas. Lily had just became an eight and all of the other kids moved up as well. She spent her days going to school and starting to find her place in the community by volunteering at various places.
Asher had continued his job as Director of Recreation. He was still good friends with Fiona and they still hung out even if there jobs took up their schedule. Fiona had moved in quite nicely at the House of the Old. She enjoyed being there and she knew that was what she wanted to do.
After a while the Giver helped the community with the pain of all the bad memories that went back to them. The kids didn’t get it as bad as the adults did. They almost understood more of what the memories meant. After the Giver was done and everything was right with the community he did what his daughter Rosemary did, applied for release. Just like his daughter he did it himself and and in 10 seconds he was gone. His memories didn’t go back to the community. Instead they just left and were never thought of again.
