RinTInChinTSG writes the following about The Giver :

This book is an excellent peice of literature that shows there is no such thing as a eutopia. The reason that a eutopia cant exsist is free choice as long as people can make choices they will make wrong ones. So in order to have a "eutopia" people must be told what to do. But in being told what to do you lose free choice wich takes away any chance of a eutopia.
