Matthew's parents are worried. At eleven, he's much too old to have
an imaginary friend, yet they find him talking to and arguing with
a presence that even he admits is not physically there. This
presence - Chocky - causes Matthew to ask difficult questions and
say startling things: he speaks of complex mathematics and mocks
human progress. Then, when Matthew does something incredible, it
seems there is more than the imaginary about Chocky. Which is when
others become interested and ask questions of their own: who is
Chocky? And what could it want with an eleven-year-old boy?
