Day of the Triffids

• ‘One of those books that haunts you for the rest of your life’ THE SUNDAY TIMES • ‘A spine-tingling yarn that science fiction fans should not miss’ BOSTON HERALD • One of TIME MAGAZINE’S ‘Top 10 Post-Apocalyptic Books’. When Bill Masen wakes up in his hospital bed, he has reason to be grateful for the bandages that covered his eyes the night before. For what he finds is a population rendered helpless, blinded by the bright green lights that filled the night sky; a population now at the mercy of the Triffids. Fantastic, frightening, but entirely plausible, John Wyndham’s bestselling story of a world dominated by monstrous, stinging and carnivorous plants captures the imagination like no other apocalyptic vision.
