Malcolm Green truly believes he knows everything.

Mention that you have a cat and, before you have even finished the sentence, Malcolm will already be listing breeds, temperaments and historical origins as though he were reciting the times tables. Siamese, Persian, Maine Coon - their habits, their diets, their average life spans - every detail delivered with the confidence of someone who cannot imagine being wrong.

At first it can seem impressive.

Soon enough, however, it becomes exhausting.

Malcolm has an answer for everything. Ask a simple question and you will receive a lecture. Make an observation and he will correct it. Share an opinion and he will politely explain why it is mistaken. Conversations with him rarely feel like conversations at all. They are performances in which Malcolm occupies the entire stage.

In truth, he is something of a bore.

People learn quickly. At parties they drift away under the pretence of refilling a glass or greeting someone across the room. In offices they glance at their watches and remember urgent emails. On the street they nod politely but keep walking.

Anything to avoid being drawn into another demonstration of Malcolm Green's limitless knowledge.

Then one day, something extraordinary happens.

This book is part of the Quick Reads series - shorter stories in length, but rich in detail. Perfect for reading anywhere, anytime.
