The Chrysalids

after the novel by John Wyndham

In a community where any difference is a sin, a boy hides his gift: he hears his friends’ thoughts.

You are David Strorm, son of the strictest man in Waknuk. Here one toe too many is reason enough to cast a child out into the Fringes. You and your friends differ in a way no one can see: you speak to each other in thoughts. So far, no one knows.
