I have published four novels and four books of literary criticism; I'm currently at work on a book called FOR THE LOVE OF BROKEN THINGS: MY FATHER, EDWARD GIBBON AND THE RUINS OF ROME. I teach in the Department of English and Comparative Literature at Columbia University.
I'm usually pretty good with British slang, but what's a "rabbit"??? I'm assuming she doesn't mean bunny... (3rd sentence)
