#hardcover#vintage#thedayofthetriffids#johnwyndham#fantasy#1951 The triffids are a monstrous species of stinging plant; they walk, they talk, they dominate the world. The narrator of this novel wakes up in a hospital to find that, by missing the end of the world, he has survived to witness a new world. But the new world that awaits him is fantastic and horrific. This book is in excellent condition being printed in 1951. The dust cover has a tear but is in overall good condition. Awesome vintage cover with original artwork shown.
