At her release ceremony, she is reunited with her roommate from the ship. Owen is only 2 when Liz is released, and throughout her journey to Earth, she thinks of Elsewhere. The novel ends with Liz being sent down the river and being reborn into her new life on Earth.

Q. What type of book is elsewhere?
Q. What genre is the book Elsewhere by Gabrielle Zevin?
Q. Does Jonas make it to elsewhere?
The ending to The Giver is sort of a “take it how you like it” deal. Either Jonas and Gabriel make it to Elsewhere, everyone is happy, and the world is right as rain, or… they die of exposure/starvation in the freezing snow.
Q. What or where is elsewhere in The Giver?
Elsewhere may refer to any area outside of Jonas’ Community (excluding other Communities), such as Village, Forest, or etc.
Q. Who is the author of the book elsewhere?
“Every so often a book comes along with a premise so fresh and arresting it seems to exist in a category all its own. “Elsewhere,” by Gabrielle Zevin, is such a book. Zevin’s touch is marvelously light even as she considers profundities, easily moving among humor, wisdom and lyricism…
Q. What happens to Liz in the book elsewhere?
Elsewhere is a society similar to our own, except that here everyone ages backwards and once they become a baby, they will be sent back to earth. Most people in Elsewhere have had lived their lives, but Liz died when she was fifteen. As she copes with the sudden loss, she must grapple with creating a new “life” in Elsewhere.
Q. What are the subcultures in the book elsewhere?
Everyone speaks English, and there doesn’t seem to be any subcultures. Basically, Elsewhere is middle-class America with a few retro references and some magical elements tossed in. Now, as a fantasy writer, I find it a little disappointing to have the whole afterlife to play with and make it so mundane.
Q. How did Elizabeth Hall die in the book elsewhere?
Elizabeth Hall is dead. She died when her bicycle was hit by a cab, a senseless accident, and when she awakes, she finds herself on a boat taking her to Elsewhere—the afterlife. Elsewhere is a society similar to our own, except that here everyone ages backwards and once they become a baby, they will be sent back to earth.
