Anotace
In Beatrice Prior's dystopian Chicago world, society is divided
into five factions, each dedicated to the cultivation of a
particular virtue--Candor (the honest), Abnegation (the selfless),
Dauntless (the brave), Amity (the peaceful), and Erudite (the
intelligent). On an appointed day of every year, all
sixteen-year-olds must select the faction to which they will devote
the rest of their lives. For Beatrice, the decision is between
staying with her family and being who she really is--she can't have
both. So she makes a choice that surprises everyone, including
herself. During the highly competitive initiation that follows,
Beatrice renames herself Tris and struggles alongside her fellow
initiates to live out the choice they have made. Together they must
undergo extreme physical tests of endurance and intense
psychological simulations, some with devastating consequences. As
initiation transforms them all, Tris must determine who her friends
really are--and where, exactly, a romance with a sometimes
fascinating, sometimes exasperating boy fits into the life she's
chosen. But Tris also has a secret, one she's kept hidden from
everyone because she's been warned it can mean death. And as she
discovers unrest and growing conflict that threaten to unravel her
seemingly perfect society, she also learns that her secret might
help her save those she loves . . . or it might destroy her. Debut
author Veronica Roth bursts onto the YA scene with the first book
in the Divergent series--dystopian thrillers filled with
electrifying decisions, heartbreaking betrayals, stunning
consequences, and unexpected romance.
