John Wyndham is a science- fiction writer. His stories are set in the future and they are a vision of what the world could be. Actually, they are more then that. The Chrysalides, for example, is an implied criticism of our present day society. The author is implying that we, Old people, are also intolerant of any, everything different, and especially anyone different. In John Wyndham’s The Chrysalides, he conveys moral message through every main character differently. There are many criticisms that the author is making about the society: that people divide themselves into the groups, they too much think about how they act and they are not themselves, about what is normal, what is not? The author makes good point about women that for the hundreds of years they were nothing and there was no respect to them. In addition, Wyndham is critical about the relationship between the family members. How much they are ready to do for each other.
