    <body><![CDATA[Interesting read.  Old SF novel that talks about the fears of the time (apocalypse from space).  Story is told well but I felt the reaction of the blind people was a little unrealistic in that they were more non-functionally depressed than they were hysterical.  The triffids were interesting creatures that were never really explained to my satisfaction.   ]]></body>
