I want to re-read all the John Wyndham books but have committed to reading a new translation of War & Peace first. So it will be about March before I can start on these(, Tue 14 Sep 2010, 11:11, 1 reply, 16 years ago)

Chocky and the Midwitch Cuckoos are the ones I really want to read againI've also just found this:
Plan for Chaos is a never-before published novel by post-apocalyptic British science fiction writer John Wyndham (1903-69), best known for his 'cozy catastrophe' novel about a venomous class of fictional plants, The Day of the Triffids. Written simultaneously with that well-known volume, which has been in print continuously since its publication in 1951, Plan for Chaos makes a fascinating companion to the author's most famous work and offers a new angle on a writer often considered the direct descendent of the legendary H.G. Wells and an influence on such innovators as Ray Bradbury and Margaret Atwood.
