Sinopse

Collected in a boxed set with gifts and stylized covers, the iconic Uglies series transports readers to a dystopian world driven by the pursuit of perfection and fame at any cost. But is the future imagined by Scott Westerfeld really that far removed from the present day?

In a post-apocalyptic reality, everyone is born ugly. And Tally Youngblood can't wait to turn sixteen and finally get the surgery to become the perfect version of herself—with reconstructed face, skin, and bones. But as she counts down the days to this long-awaited moment, she discovers that the rebels may be closer than she thinks, trying to overthrow the system she so desperately wants to be a part of.

Throughout the first three volumes of the series— Uglies , Pretties , and Specials —Tally finds herself torn between what she's always longed for and newly discovered truths about the world of pretties. Amidst adventures, longings, and rebellious actions, she'll have to learn to deal with the consequences of her own decisions.

A generation later, the world remains challenging. This time, in the fourth volume, Extras , Aya Fuse lives in a society where the only way to be relevant is to become famous overnight. However, as she tries to achieve celebrity status, she finds herself faced with a crucial dilemma: is fame worth anything?

The thought-provoking series "Uglies" raises themes that, even after almost two decades of release, still have everything to do with contemporary society, especially when addressing the great importance attributed to beauty and the consequent search for the perfect body and face, without neglecting to address issues related to individuality, friendship and mechanisms of social control.
