Condition: GOOD. Paperback original - first US printing. A book which asks the questions "Suppose you could extend your life to 300 healthy, active years with no infirmities of age? What would this secret be worth? What would you do to protect it?" One reviewer commented that "what Wyndham does here is think things through in what was, for the time, a rather surprising way: he looks at it from the feminist angle." (Guardian) One of the scientists behind this discovery was a woman, the granddaughter of a suffragist, and this novel explores how such a discovery will affect women's lives, and their expectations of life - and the reaction against women being empowered.

"Wyndham's reputation rests mainly on the first four of the novels published in his life under that name. The Day of the Triffids remains his best-known work, but some readers consider that The Chrysalids was really his best. This is set in the far future of a post-nuclear dystopia where genetic stability is compromised and women are severely oppressed if they give birth to "mutants". David Mitchell, author of Cloud Atlas, wrote of it: "One of the most thoughtful post-apocalypse novels ever written. Wyndham was a true English visionary, a William Blake with a science doctorate." The Guardian states his "innocuously English backdrops are central to the power of his novels, implying that apocalypse could occur at any time or, indeed, be happening in the next village at this moment", while The Times's reviewer of The Day of the Triffids described it as possessing "all the reality of a vividly realised nightmare." " (from Wikipedia).
