The Chrysalids

An intelligent little book about difference and the way it is perceived.
In Wyndham's post-nuclear world any mutants are destroyed or are cast out by the religious tribes who strive to maintain the norm.
Our narrator, David, has an invisible difference that puts him, and his friends, at risk. But what if there's a place where they would be accepted?
Published in 1955 it feels just as fresh as anything written today and would fit well into the popular YA bracket.
An enjoyable, quick read that I'm bound to return to again and again.
