Description
A stunning new clothbound edition of a seminal science-fiction novel, designed by acclaimed Coralie-Bickford Smith. When Bill Masen wakes up blindfolded in hospital, he discovers a world in chaos. A meteor shower has blinded everyone, leaving him as the only person who can see.
As the triffids, huge and venomous plants that can 'walk' and feed on human flesh, take advantage of the situation, Bill must navigate a desperate struggle for survival. With civilization in disarray, he must confront the terrifying reality of his new world.
This gripping novel explores the consequences of a catastrophic event and the resilience of humanity in the face of unimaginable danger.
