From John Wyndham, author of The Day of the Triffids, comes this chilling tale of a normal boy confronted with abnormal circumstances. Matthew had always been an ordinary boy. Even when he started talking to himself and introduced his invisible friend, Chocky, to the family, it was obviously just a phase he was going through. And all children have imaginary friends, even if Matthew's a bit old to have one. As he becomes increasingly distressed and blames it on arguments with this unseen companion, his parents become concerned. But when Matthew starts explaining binary maths and anti-gravity propulsion, concerns turn to worry. After all, Chocky is only the product of an overactive imagination. Isn't he? Chocky stars Sacha Dhawan as Matthew, Owen Teale as David Gore and Cathy Tyson as Mary Gore.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

John Wyndham

John Wyndham Parkes Lucas Beynon Harris, nasceu no Reino Unido, em Knowle a 10 de Julho de 1903, tendo vindo a falecer em 1969. Após ter tentado várias profissões, John Wyndham começou a escrever na década de 1930, mas o seu primeiro grande êxito deveu-o a O Dia das Trífides, publicado em 1951. Seguem-se diversos outros títulos, que inspiraram várias versões cinematográficas. O aspecto mais impresionante das suas obras é o facto de os invasores alienígenas não se apresentarem como monstros, mas surgirem discretamente dentro da normalidade do quotidiano. Interessante também, nas suas obras, é a visionária lucidez com que denuncia a exploração dos recursos ambientais pela humanidade.
