Henry Gasko Quantum Love
Henry Gasko was born in a displaced persons camp in Yugoslavia after World War Two. He was raised on a vegetable farm in Canada, and emigrated to Australia more than forty years ago. He has recently retired from a career in data analysis and medical research. Henry has had stories published in the anthologies "Dreamworks", “Alternate Apocalypse”, “On Time”, in Australia's Aurealis magazine, and in the SciPhi Journal. He is a two-time semi-finalist in The Writers of the Future and he won first prize in Positive Writer's "Why I Write" essay contest. He also won the 2018 Sapiens Plurum short story competition, and came third in the 2020 competition. When he is not writing, he enjoys cycling, kayaking, swimming and playing bridge. About Quantum Love: "I have always been intrigued at the possibilities of depicting the sort of love that spans eons and galaxies. Not easy in a short piece, but one day I was thinking about quantum entanglement and I realized it was the perfect metaphor for that kind of love. In fact, I am surprised that (as far as I am aware) no one has done it before."
