FORCED TO CHOOSE. . .
In a future world that’s neatly divided into five factions—Abnegation (the selfless), Amity (the peaceful), Candor (the honest), Erudite (the learned), and Dauntless (the brave)—you’d think it would be easy to find your place. After all, each faction embodies one of the best qualities in human nature. And within any faction, a person finds community. Responsibility. Love. It’s a simple but satisfying system.
Unless you don’t fit in.
Sixteen-year-old Beatrice Prior, born into Abnegation, knows she doesn’t belong fully in any of these groups. Her aptitude test has revealed something terrible: She’s suited for more than one faction.
Divergent, it’s called. In this world, that’s a dangerous thing to be. Peace and stability depend on people pledging loyalty to one faction above all else—even family. But a person who doesn’t fit into any category could have divided loyalties. And a person with divided loyalties might not be easily controlled.
Beatrice can’t share this secret with anyone, not even her parents. But now she knows there’s a reason she’s never felt quite like the rest of her quiet, self-sacrificing family. Now she knows why she’s always been drawn to the daring Dauntless kids at school. She could be one of them, too, if she wanted.
Tomorrow, she will have to choose.
The faction system allows Beatrice to leave Abnegation for another faction at the Choosing Ceremony. There’s only one catch: It will mean cutting ties with her family forever.
Poised at the edge of adulthood, this girl must make a permanent and life-altering decision, with consequences she can’t foresee. Should she stay safe inside the limits she has always known, together with her family? Or should she take a chance on what’s in her heart and leave everything else behind?
Veronica Roth sets up this conflict in the opening chapters of her stunning 2011 debut novel, Divergent. It’s as if she has distilled the entire teen experience into these few pages, recognizing that moving into adulthood can also mean leaving beloved people and places behind.
Shailene Woodley as Beatrice “Tris” Prior.
As Roth explains it, “I think it’s the classic coming-of-age moment, but exaggerated. At some point in your life you have to decide if you’re going to stick with the way you were raised and fully commit to what your parents have taught you to do, or to listen to your own internal compass. And sometimes your internal compass leads you to where your parents actually wanted you to go. I don’t think any teenager’s really experiencing this on quite so intense a level, but I think it’s the reason so many people have connected to the story.”
