Jonas' mother has an important job with the Department of Justice, and his father has a job as a Nurturer, taking care of newborns. Jonas' family, like all other families in the community, includes a caring mother and father and two children - one male child and one female child. No evidence of disease, hunger, poverty, war, or lasting pain exists in the community. Through Jonas' eyes, his community appears to be a utopia - a perfect place - that is self-contained and isolated from Elsewhere, every other place in the world. Lowry narrates The Giver in third person ("He said," as opposed to "I said," which is called first person), using a limited omniscient viewpoint (only Jonas' thoughts and feelings are revealed).
