Malcolm Cumming is lost in the paradise of literature. He enjoys it there. Unfortunately the tug of the expedients of life sometimes interferes, but along the way he’s accidentally gotten a first-class education, and probably needs more. Now he’s travelling the world as a male model, knocking out the odd magazine feature on a freelance basis, and composing and compiling a collection of short stories for publication, two of which have featured in an anthology of southern African writers.
