Originally published in 1955 Jack Finney's sinister SF tale has
outgrown the initial debate about whether it satirized Communism or
the conformity of US society at the time, to become a classic of
paranoia; an examination of our fear of 'the other'. Most people
know the story from seeing THE INVASION OF THE BODY SNATCHERS, the
classic 1978 remake (one of the few Hollwood remakes said to better
than the original, made in 1956) starring Donald Sutherland. Here's
your chance to read the original source; a story that has resonated
with readers and viewers for more than 50 years.
