Pure is a dystopian work authored by American poet Julianna Baggott, released in February 2012 by Grand Central Publishing in the United States and Headline in the United Kingdom.
Serving as the initial book of a trilogy, Pure depicts a post-nuclear apocalypse environment. It contrasts the experiences of Pressia and her community living outside with Partridge and his group residing within The Dome, a vast shelter shielded from radiation. Those outside refer to the dome inhabitants as "pures," while those inside label outsiders "wretches." The story follows both main characters until their lives intersect unexpectedly.
Baggott continued the narrative with two follow-ups: Fuse in 2013 and Burn in 2014.
Adaptation
In 2013, the film rights for Pure were secured by 20th Century Fox, with producer Karen Rosenfelt involved and James Ponsoldt attached as director.
