The fourth plaque is dedicated to uncovering wartime mis-adventures at a secret military research facility beneath Glasgow's Botanic Gardens, where it is sited, and the science fiction novel they inspired.

Very best of luck to all those who saw last night’s ‘unusual display’.

Today we celebrate the birthday of English science fiction writer John Wyndham, born today in 1903. His best known works include The Day of the Triffids and The Midwich Cuckoos, the latter filmed twice as Village of the Damned. #JohnWyndham
Book 4 done. A short read, this one - and my first experience of #JohnWyndham . This is his 1968 tale of a young boy “possessed” by an alien intelligence - Chocky. Enjoyed it, but I wouldn’t say it was essential 👍🏻 👽

Del libro del genio #JohnWyndham llegó esta historia sobre un pueblo sometido a la voluntad de unos extraños niños.
#WolfRilla casi se apega al expresionismo, usa la paranoia y provoca #terror sirviéndose sólo de atmósferas opresivas.
Nunca la mirada de un niño dio tanto miedo.

“Knowledge is simply a kind of fuel; it needs the motor of understanding to convert it into power.”

To paraphrase The Rock. Finally...
J-M has watched the Midwich Cuckoos. 🐦
After over a year on DVD I managed to watch the whole show in just 2 days.
Enjoy the rest of your day!

It must be, I thought, one of the race’s most persistent and comforting hallucinations to trust that “it can’t happen here”—that one’s own little time and place is beyond cataclysms. And now it was happening here.

💀“Triffids were at large...I began to loathe them now from more than their carrion-eating habits - they, more than anything else, seemed able to profit and flourish on our disaster...”🎨FB: The vault of retro sci-fi💀 #TheDayOfTheTriffids #JohnWyndham #Lovecraftian #Horror #Scifi
Releyendo #TheChrisalids del británico #JohnWyndham , en la edición de Runas. Es una novela que se acerca mucho a mis intereses en el fantástico.
