Max Onstage
Max, the ghost, has never appeared to anybody but Jeffrey, so no one else believes he exists. But strange things have been happening lately that only the presence of a ghost could explain, and Jeffrey's friend Kenny is beginning to think that Max just might be real after all. When Max makes Kenny volunteer for the lead in the school play, Kenny is sure he's real. He desperately wants to meet Jeffrey's invisible friend, but Jeffrey can't promise anything—he knows how stubborn Max can be. Then Kenny loses his starring role, and it looks as if he doesn't have a ghost of a chance of getting it back without Max's help. . . .

Quarterly Essay 15 Latham's World
In the third Quarterly Essay of 2004, Margaret Simons takes a long hard look at Mark Latham, the self-proclaimed "club buster" and the man who would be prime minister. Few doubt Latham's intelligence and ambition, but what will this amount to in government? Simons argues that if Labor is elected, it will not be "business as usual". Rather we can expect a reformist government in the spirit - if not the letter - of Latham's political tutor, Gough Whitlam. It is also likely to be a government that has little time for the totemic issues of the Labor elites.
