About this listen
Matthew, they thought, was just going through a phase of talking to himself. And, like many parents, they waited for him to get over it, but it started to get worse. Mathew's conversations with himself grew more and more intense—it was like listening to one end of a telephone conversation while someone argued, cajoled and reasoned with another person you couldn't hear. Then Matthew started doing things he couldn't do before, like counting in binary-code mathematics. So he told them about Chocky—the person who lived in his head.

Thought provoking
I’m a big fan of John Wyndham’s work. This was a lot less eventful than many of his other books, but an interesting listen nonetheless. The narration was perfect for this story. Thanks!

Good
This author has a particular way of bringing social issues and social questions to science fiction. His style is clear and easy to listen to. It speaks of a particular period in English fiction, writing, post-war, the beginning of many new inventions and possibilities.

Well read and a good story
A great mid-century science fiction novel. Very believable characters and beautifully written drama and dialogue.

Hard to listen to
I can’t believe I listened to the whole thing.
Boring story line with unimportant information and very dull narration

Tedious
I found this incredibly tedious both in story line and narration. the narration was clipped which I found irritating. The story, of which there was none, only became vaguely interesting in the last chapter. Predictable.
