'The Chrysalids' by John Wyndham
I read all his major novels (there are seven) when I was in my teens and loved them with a kind of evangelical devotion, but how would this one stack up more than 20 years later? Strangely enough I had forgotten so much of the detail of The Chrysalid ... (read full critics)
