Description

With the potential for cloning already a reality, we all have to face some major ethical questions. Who has a right to determine a person's genetic makeup? And how will we treat our genetic underclass? In Pure, fifteen-year-old Lenni is a gifted healer to some, and to others only a skidge -- an illegal genetic experiment gone horribly wrong. Set in the future where genetic engineering of humans is forbidden, Lenni must escape from Dawn, a community controlled by the Genetic Purity Council, or Pure.
