Also, I should note that I have both "A Burnt Child" and "A Moth to a Flame" in my little Dagerman stack -- these are the same book in two different translations. I found the latter at a used bookstore and picked it up just to have for the intro, but I didn't want someone else to see them and buy them without realizing they were the same book!
