Now by Morris Gleitzman

Last night I read Now by Morris Gleitzman.  It’s the third part of the trilogy whose earlier books are Once and Then.  It brings the story of Felix and Zelda up to date being set in Australia in 2009.  If anything, this book is even better than its predecessors.  It caught me unawares and left me in an emotional whirlwind.  I don’t know how Morris Gleitzman creates such powerful prose using such a simple style.  I can only conclude that he’s a literary genius.
