Description: Vintage paperback copy of The Midwich Cuckoos, by John Wyndham (Ballantine, 1976). A classic novel of SF horror that only John Wyndham could write, The Midwich Cuckoos tells the story of a small village in England where all the women become pregnant by parasitic aliens. The novel, like all of Wyndham's work, is deeper than the SF elements would suggest, and it has been praised by such authors as Margaret Atwood for the skillful way it handles moral ambiguity. The book was made into a film called The Village of the Damned in 1960, starring George Sanders, and again in 1995, this time starring Christopher Reeve and Kirstie Alley. This book is in very good condition, with a tight spine and no rips, tears, marks, or other major signs of wear. This cover, with the spooky baby's head, is relatively rare.
