    The Giver is also based on this premise and came out after Le Guin’s version.

    Didn’t realize it was a common trope.

      Always felt like the giver had this very anti-communist bent. Like “hey look what you’d give up in this egalitarian society! All those gritty aspects of life is what makes it worth living!”. Maybe I’m just wrong
