For instance in the book The Giver the character Fiona doesn’t care about Jonas as deeply as she does in the movie. In the movie she stops her injections, and she starts to love Jonas. However in the book she only “enjoys having Jonas’s company”. In the movie she also helps Jonas steal Gabe before he is killed, and she is put in the community jail for helping him. Before she is going to be released she talks about how she has felt things. That she knows what it is like to truly feel, and in the book she isn’t this unorthodox.…

    Clothes are simply defined as “items worn to cover the body” however they are seen as much more than that. Clothing has always been a way of defining social hierarchy dating back to the ancient times, when peasants wore cheap clothing of wool or cotton and royalty were adorned in the most brilliant imported fabrics and silk. The idea that someone who may dress better is more appealing, and someone who dresses the opposite is less appealing is a concept that even the society today believes. However, in the end the real reality of it all is that even though people appear to look different than one another, that does not establish who they actually are. The man who…
