The Giver by Lois Lowry
Jonas's world is perfect. Everything is under control. There is no war or fear or pain. There are no choices. Every person is assigned a role in the Community. When Jonas turns twelve, he is singled out to receive special training from The Giver. The Giver alone holds the memories of the true pain and pleasure of life. Now, it is time for Jonas to receive the truth. There is no turning back. (Goodreads)
Each new Classics Revisited session will be self-contained. Thus, teachers can decide on how many they wish to attend.
NO PREVIOUS READING OF MATERIAL IS REQUIRED
They can choose to either read the novels beforehand (copies are available at Kel’s and other bookstores) or attend the sessions in order to familiarize themselves with the authors via excerpts.

The sessions will be organized in terms of workshops for participants to enrich their understanding of the texts with contributions from the group. The latter will discuss the target audience for each text, points of entry, textual interventions and intertextual links which can be established with other verbal or visual texts.
