About this book
John Wyndham's 1951 classic post-apocalypse novel introduced the world to triffids, walking man-eating plants, preying on humanity in a world struck blind by a cosmic disaster. Only a few sighted people remain, and it is up to them to rebuild civilization and keep the triffids at bay—if they can learn to survive in this new world!
