alobearContinuing with John Wyndham, I listened to an audio version of Chocky recently and very much enjoyed it.
It's an interesting little book, exploring lots of different issues, with perhaps a less than flattering view of women on occasion, but generally very good.
It made me want to re-watch the 80s TV show, which I remember with startling clarity from when I was just a nipper. I remember enjoying the follow-up series, Chocky's Children, as well, though it's not often a good idea to revisit things that had such an impact on your childhood - just in case they're really dreadful!
On a separate note, there won't be any book reviews for a while, since I've fallen down the fanfiction rabbit hole and don't see myself emerging any time soon.
