Terrifying...The sense of doom, claustrophobia and, quite literally, blind terror that Wyndham stokes up is almost palpable...Nerve-jarringly close to what could really happen. - Sunday Times
The risks of genetic engineering become horrifyingly real in this post-apocalyptic tale of the collapse human society and nature's revenge.
When Bill Masen wakes up in hospital after recovering from eye injuries, he is faced with a deathly silence. As he peels the bandages from his eyes he discovers that the rest of the world has gone blind and civilization has come to an end. A future of chaos and violence awaits him. But the greatest threat is yet to come: the triffids, genetically engineered plants who feed on human flesh. Sensing their new-found ecological advantage, they quietly escape from their confines and seize the day...
