The cloned individuels grow up in special institutions away from the outside world. As young adults, they begin to donate their organs, until they "complete." There are some clear indications which convey that the novel takes place in a dystopian world. In essence, the novel includes extreme segregation and classification. For instance, the clones are physically separated almost entirely from the general human population, in other words are literally imprisoned. This segregation allows the guardians to raise the clones however they like, which is transmitted to the reader as a normal peaceful life. But Nonetheless These clones are considered to be sub-human, rather seen as objects from which humans can take their advantage of it. Another significant fact is, that humans cant or dont want to realize that clones get tortured and murdered. Instead realizing and changing something they rather prefer a segregation, which should make clear that these clones are nothing but donors who donate their organs and complete afterwards.
