Manni asked Lois Lowry:

I first heard about "The Giver" in eng. class, where a teacher from the US read it to us. The title and author got lost that time. It gave me such a good (& long lasting) impression the first time and I'm glad I agreed with myself later when I found it. "The Giver" is loved in many countries, and it's been a decade since it was first published. What do you think about such a good reception and success of the book?

Lois Lowry I think it is an indication of the kinds of questions it raises. They are universal ones.
