The Giver is set in a futuristic society that is completely politically incorrect. The city is isolated and the people in the city do not think there is anyone else in the world. People cannot choose their jobs, instead, they are given jobs and to make it worse they cannot see any color.

The setting in this story is very important because if it was set in 2012 they would know of a different world and the people in the city would not have to be told what their job was. Everyone in the city would be able to see color and live life better than being color blind.

The setting affects the plot in many ways and the first thing is that if they were in 2012 they would not only see black and white and they would have cars and not have to ride bikes. The people would get along differently if they could talk when they drove. Another thing is that the people in the city would not have to lose their friends by what job they get.

The setting would change the characters because if they did not live in such an isolated city they could communicate with the outside world and would be able to be friends with people outside their community.

The setting is very important in the book “The Giver” and without the setting the way it is the whole book would be changed.
