Question

In the Giver,why don't people in the book perceive color?what is Jonas's opinion of giving up color?how do you decribe color to someone who has never experienced it?

Answer 1

Color was taken out of their world. That is relevant since only the giver actually knew what color was. The society they lived in was very protected and under strict rule so they were not allowed to have color. When Jonas discovers color he is like why don't we have color. He believes that everyone should have color and they should know feelings instead of just feeling like a robot. You can only describe color to a point.
