About the Author:
John Wyndham Parkes Lucas Beyon Harris had a variety of careers before becoming an author, but decided to take up writing professionally in 1925. Under several pseudonyms, he wrote numerous short stories for American science fiction magazines. During World War II, he worked in the Ministry of Information before serving in the army, and took part in the Normandy landings. He returned to writing in 1946, using the pen name John Wyndham, and The Day of the Triffids was published in 1951. It was a huge success, and was followed by seven further novels. He died in 1969.
Review:
Clyde gives an excellent performance. * * Publishing News * * Jeremy Clyde's reading cannot be faulted. * * audiobooksreview.co.uk * * Listening to it now in our age of ambitious genetic experimentation, it packs even more of a punch, * * The Times * *
