The community in the giver was not successful in creating a perfect world all with terrible things hiding in the community resurfaced. Chapter 14: “this memory, though the hill seemed to be a different one, steeper, and the snow was not falling as thickly as it had before.” “Jonas pulled at the rope, trying to steer, but the steepness and speed took control from his hands and he was no longer enjoying the feeling of freedom but instead, terrified, was at the mercy of the wild acceleration downward over the ice.” Chapter 15: “But the noise continued all around: the cries of the wounded men, the cries begging for water and for Mother and for death. Horses lying on the ground shrieked, raised their heads, and stabbed randomly toward the sky with their hooves. From the distance, Jonas could hear the thud of cannons. Overwhelmed by pain, he lay there in the fearsome stench for hours, listened to the men and animals die, and learned what warfare meant.” This displays memories of a time when society was not as utopian as people believe. Jonas experienced a new set of emotions: fear and anxiety. As Rule #5 states No one is supposed to have strong feelings.

Jonas is not accustomed to these new feelings.
