In "The Chrysalids" by John Wyndham, David's community, known as Waknuk, was largely established by his father, Reverend Jacob Strorm. He is a strict and religious leader who enforces a dogmatic belief in the purity of the human race and the eradication of deviations. The community is structured around these beliefs, which dictate social norms and the treatment of those who are different or deemed "deviations." David, as the protagonist, grapples with these oppressive values throughout the story.
