Penguin Decades bring you the novels that helped shape modern Britain. When they were published, some were bestsellers, some were considered scandalous, and others were simply misunderstood. All represent their time and helped define their generation, while today each is considered a landmark work of storytelling.
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.

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.

Soon they face a choice: wait for eventual discovery or flee to the terrifying and mutable Badlands ...
