In Button, just where is the writer going? Is he losing his mind? Hasn't he proofread his story? At least in You, that isn't the problem. Here is a modern-day morality play with just a touch of fantasy. Romp, on the other hand, is just that from end to end. Each of these three stories, which are quite unconnected from one another, hopefully makes you pause and think a while. They were originally conceived for older children or teenagers - and they can be read out loud - but they are more likely to be appreciated by grown-up children of any age.

Autorenporträt
Dr Gerloch retired in 1999 from a career as an academic and research scientist in the field of quantum chemistry at the University of Cambridge. He is an emeritus fellow of Trinity Hall. He and his wife, Gwyneth, have since lived in Canberra, Australia. In retirement, Malcolm has enjoyed garden design, house renovation, and learning to cook in several cuisines. In 2004, he constructed a dual-manual Flemish harpsichord for Gwyneth to play and to thank her for introducing him (so late in life) to the non-scientific literature of the nineteenth and twentieth century European and twentieth century American writers. At 79, Malcolm began writing both children's and adult short stories, as well as the present account of retirement in Oz.
