"The Outcast" is adapted from Sadie Jones's novel of the same name. This novel is Sadie Jones's debut work, which received high praise upon publication, won numerous literary awards, sold in 21 countries, and has sold over a million copies in the UK and the USA, remaining on the bestseller lists of The New York Times and The Times. The BBC's adaptation mini-series is written by Sadie Jones herself, allowing for a perfect transition from novel to screen. From a young age, Lewis's father was on the battlefield, and he grew up living with his mother. When he was 7 years old, his father returned from the war, and the family was reunited, but Lewis's mother tragically drowned during a picnic. Not long after, his father remarried a young woman, while Lewis carried the shadow of his mother's departure into adulthood. He became rebellious, self-destructive, and even broke the law; his lonely heart never found warmth. Through his struggles, Lewis searches for the meaning of survival.
