In "The Chrysalids" by John Wyndham, the Fringes refer to the outer regions of the society where mutants and deviations from the norm are forced to live. This area is characterized by lawlessness and a lack of the rigid societal controls found in the more central, "pure" communities. Inhabitants of the Fringes often face discrimination and violence from those in the more regulated areas, illustrating the theme of intolerance toward difference in the novel. The Fringes serve as a contrast to the oppressive conformity of the main society.
