A quote from The Twinkling of an Eye, Brian Aldiss' autobiography:P D James, ordinarily a bestselling middle-class thriller writer, set The Children of Men in the future. The novel was published in 1992. I began to worry about her novel when readers wrote to me, pointing out many similarities between James' novel and my own Greybeard. Greybeard was published by the same publisher, edited by the same editor as James', 30 years earlier; it was still in print... The points of similarity between the novels are astonishing. Both centre around Oxford and are set in a world dominated by a tinpot dictator, where there are no more children... *******Author’s fear of nuclear radiation PLUS author’s recent divorce and consequent lack of contact with his own children PLUS author’s horror of stoats (stoats? Stoats!!)= Greybeard, a moony mournful meandering dystopian very British SF novel from 1964.The concept is that atomic tests made in space in 1981 radiated the entire planet and caused the higher mammals (except reindeer - Reindeer? Reindeer!!) to become sterile. A bit like - actually quite a lot like - P D James’ 1992 novel Children of Men which was, curiously, set in the exact same near-future period (late 2020s). The story follows one of the world’s youngest couples Algy and Martha who are in their early 50s. All other characters are 70 plus if they're a day. And the plot follows an unfortunately age-appropriate tired desultory fits-and-starts path as Greybeard and wife and a couple of geriatric friends bumble down a river to somewhere undefined for some hazy reason which is never spelled out, stopping here and there to tarry awhile and see what the ancient inhabitants are up to in their ramshackle decaying hamlets and follow various rumours about children …

Rating: 3.5* of five$1.99 Kindle edition, ON SALE TODAY, 11 Jan 2021!The Publisher Says: The sombre story of a group of people in their fifties who face the fact that there is no younger generation coming to replace them; instead nature is rushing back to obliterate the disaster they have brought on themselves. Was slighty revised by the author in 2012.My Review: First published in 1964, at the tail end of one of the scariest passages during the Cold War, this post-apocalyptic look at the resilience and the lack of same in the human spirit was involving and affecting. It was also a disorganized mess.Chapters 1-3 take place in 2025 and on, or the mid-point of the story. Chapter 4 takes place as the world finds its way through the crisis. Chapter 5 has us back in about 2030...Chapter 6 is early days of the Accident, as the sterilization of Earth's humans is called...and then back to 2030 in Chapter 7. It's kind of a confused way to tell a story. Not that it's a complicated story, but it's always nice to have things move along in sequence when there's no reason, stylistic or otherwise, for them not to.Aldiss' Introduction to the 2012 edition tells of the genesis of the story...a divorce, a general reduction of his life to solitude, and a desperate yearning for his lost kids...and I must say that this Introduction is what kept me going for the whole short 237ish pages. I could relate to his sense of loss and his almost desperate longing. I looked for those things in his text and really didn't find them too terribly often. Many things occur in the book, but few of them happen, if you see what I mean; Greybeard, the main character, and Martha, Greybeard's wife, aren't prone to overstatement. Jeff, a character whose slippery presence is highly emotionally charged, makes little impact in the end. …

New content will be added above the current area of focus upon selection
I read the book "The Children of Men" by P.D. James (1920-2014) and many have thought that that book was a rip-off of the earlier "Greybeard" by Brian Aldiss (1925-2017) and having now read "Greybeard" I would agree. As I have read a lot of Aldiss but not "Greybeard," I thought I'd read it especially to compare the two books...The theme is that the human race has become sterile and so we have a society of aged people (who are only getting older, of course) without young people. Both the James and Aldiss books are set in the early 21st C., Aldiss' starting in 2029. And as both authors are English, both books are set in England and, in fact, Oxford is featured in both of them. I think I prefer "Greybeard" because I prefer Aldiss as a writer, so maybe that's unfair concerning the stories. I'm sure many readers preferred the P.D. James story. But I particularly liked the ending of Aldiss' book, so I will say the original story by Aldiss is better.
