The point of view of this novel is the third person. The author tells his story through the eyes of Tally Youngblood, a new pretty. Tally has become pretty in order to test a cure for the lesions given to pretties during their initial surgery, but the surgery has caused her to forget her promise and the purpose of the cure.
