The future society described in The Chrysalids' book review "The Chrysalids" is suffering from the aftermath of God's disaster that destroyed the old ancient world still. Survivors say disaster is a disaster. No one knows why it happened, but David, the narrator, accused it of being a 'no religious arrogance', and God was punished with his anger. Only older legends are left behind.

John Wyndham's biography: John Wyndham was born in 1903 and has carried over four carriers before beginning writing a short story in 1925. This kind of embarrassment was written in 1955. Summary of the book: After thousands of years since our era, the world faced something called "suffering". When the civilization is almost completely eliminated, it must be resumed with new rules and laws. Humans are born as "paranoids", lacking the attributes of ordinary humans, and are thought to be awkward for God.

John Wyndham 's Chrysalids reissued by the New York Book Classic Review are mainly creative novels. It is also a page flipper, but the premise may seem to be unfamiliar to modern readers (this was written in 1955). This novel tells the story of a boy who discovered that he has the ability to change This is a post apocalyptic future that mankind is struggling to survive. The society in which he was born fought mutants, so this discovery is problematic. So far, this sounds like a plot of X - Men cartoon. But Wyndham is not interested in beautiful mutant power technique or spectacular superhuman fight. Instead, he focuses on human characteristics, making genetic variation a rich subject of fictitious exploration. Our self-love and the tendency to promote our seeds to all other species, and these are often intolerant intolerance

I like his book the most, The Chrysalids (1955) set a pattern for post apocalyptic novels. Unlike comfortable disasters, Norm was a generation after the nuclear war destroyed our civilization forever. It combines the theme of the most famous works of Wyndham and there is a calamity that actually brings a group of strange kids into a world that scares them, but that is a different and funny world. This story is spoken from a different point of view. One of children's opinion. (Wyndham and Spider Robinson believe telepathy will make people better, be very attractive and do not make themselves better ideas.)
