Have you ever read 'Chocky' by John Wyndham ?

A most imaginative book (only 150 pages) and well ahead of its time.

I'm afraid I haven't, but coming from you, I'll look it up. Thank you.

I'm flattered but

It was coming from Wyndham really (did you recognise the Triffid man ?).

He had such a great imagination, and I believe it was his first novel.

Dear Studiot, it would be shocking indeed that I recognised a character from a novel I haven't read!

I love British culture, but I cannot compete with you in that respect. I'm looking up Wyndham as we speak. Mind you, I must keep an eye on domestic affairs, literary and otherwise.
