Methuselah's Children

Robert A. Heinlein

Members of the Families were ordinary human beings, no different from neighboring Browns and Smiths; except for one disturbing trait: they were extraordinarily long-lived. In the ultra-civilized world of 2125 A.D. this distinction was intolerable. Hounded for a secret they did not possess, the Families were forced to choose between torture and extinction by their short-lived brethren, or flight from Earth in an untested starship.
