Chapter 15

Jonas finds The Giver once again incapacitated by pain and offers to take some of it. The Giver transmits to him a horrible scene of war where men, some barely older than he is, are lying injured, dying and thirsty. Jonas experienced lying near death in agony for hours before the memory is complete. When he opens his eyes, The Giver asks him for forgiveness.
