That's no possible that the whole community are colourless, right? I mean the melanin, haemoglobin and carotene, which determine the skin colour--rosy cheeks, pale appearence, yellowish tone on the skin..they can't just make these pigments disappear without affecting body functions, right? HOW does colour absent from their lives?
Lois Lowry
You have to accept that there are some magical elements in the book...not just science.

Lois Lowry:
As an author whose work has become so integrated into wider American culture, I have wondered: what are your thoughts on how your fans have interpreted The Giver? Is there anything that you wish they had taken from the story that they seem to have missed? Is there anything that surprises or annoys you?
