I know one thing for certain: My parents never read the blurb.
In the potted biography of creator Raymond Briggs’, among explaining his many achievements, it describes how he has created several illustrated books “for children”. This, it states, is his first “for adults”.
When the Wind Blows was released in 1982. I was seven. It was, and I only realise this as I’m typing it right now, the first cultural item specifically designed for adults that I ever experienced. It provided my childish mind with its first real images of Armageddon.
