The Unread Bestseller

triffids.jpg

As an trailer to the documentary on John Wyndham that I’ve made and is on today, I’ve written a blog on Wyndham for the Guardian blog, the books page, not the theatre page this time. It suggests that the price Wyndham has paid for his great fame and sales is that his books haven’t been read closely enough to see their subtlety and indeed subversiveness.

You can read it here.

You may be here because you’ve come across a book, or play, or article of mine and you want to know more. Maybe you’re a student or a colleague or a friend or an acquaintance and you want to find out more about me. Maybe you are gathering ammunition for a vicious ad hominem attack that will expose me for the charlatan that I am.  

If so, you’ve come to the right place. Feel free to get in touch.
