First published in 1955, The Chrysalids is a post-nuclear story of genetic mutation in a devastated world, which tells of the lengths the intolerant will go to to keep themselves pure.
David Strorm's father doesn't approve of Angus Morton's unusually large horses, calling them blasphemies against nature. Little does he realize that his own son, his niece Rosalind and their friends, have their own secret aberration which would label them as mutants. But as David and Rosalind grow older it becomes more difficult to conceal their differences from the village elders. Soon they face a choice: wait for eventual discovery or flee to the terrifying and mutable Badlands...

Autoren-Porträt von John Wyndham
John Wyndahm wurde 1903 in der Nähe von Birmingham geboren. Ab 1925 versuchte er sich als Autor und 1931 erschien seine erste Erzählung, allerdings unter einem seiner vielen Pseudonyme, John Beynon Harris. Er orientierte sich stark an H. G. Wells und war diesem stilistisch durchaus ebenbürtig. Den Namen John Wyndham verwendete er erst nach dem Zweiten Weltkrieg. Er genießt bei Science Fiction-Fans den Ruf eines Klassikers.
