內容簡介

  中文譯名: 記憶傳承人



  每年的十二月,是眾人翹首盼望的社區「大慶典」,十二歲以下的孩子從這時開始進階,十二歲的孩子也從這時展開終生的工作。這份工作依孩子的興趣、擅長及表現來分發。喬納思想不出自己的特長和喜好是什麼,所以特別不安和期待即將到來的指派。他的均衡發展及異於常人的「超眼界」能力,讓他雀屏中選,成為社區中唯一的「記憶傳承人」。擔任這個職位的人享有特權,可以任意活動,可以向任何人提問,可以說謊;只除了──無法與人分享。喬納思如何在扮演新角色之後,做出新的改變呢?


  ★本書中譯版《記憶傳承人》由台灣東方出版。

In Lois Lowry’s Newbery Medal-winning classic, twelve-year-old Jonas lives in a seemingly ideal world. Not until he is given his life assignment as the Receiver does he begin to understand the dark secrets behind his fragile community.

This movie tie-in edition features cover art from the movie and an exclusive Q&A with cast members, including Taylor Swift, Brenton Thwaites, and Cameron Monaghan.

Life in the community where Jonas lives is idyllic. Designated birthmothers produce newchildren, who are assigned to appropriate family units. Citizens are assigned their partners and their jobs. No one thinks to ask questions. Everyone obeys. Everyone is the same. Except Jonas.

Not until he is given his life assignment as the Receiver of Memory does he begin to understand the dark, complex secrets behind his fragile community. Gradually Jonas learns that power lies in feelings. But when his own power is put to the test--when he must try to save someone he loves--he may not be ready. Is it too soon? Or too late?

The Giver has become one of the most influential novels of our time. Don’t miss the powerful companion novels in Lois Lowry’s Giver Quartet: Gathering Blue, Messenger, and Son.

劇透警告
覺得這本書很適合國高中生閱讀,可以練習英文,認識新單字,中間Jonas在訓練的過程會占蠻多頁的,對我來說就比較無聊了,但其它講述角色的部分及細節還是能清楚找到。

我是看完電影後才來看這本書的,
英文程度不會太難,用字不會過於艱澀,
的確適合青少年來讀,
書中的世界令人震驚,
有許多我們認為「理所當然」的事,
在書中的世界都不復存在,
有趣的世界觀及角色動機值得一看再看!
