One of the pools that remain vivid in my memory is a glass-bottomed one on the top floor of a South African hotel, from which you could look down to the atrium. You can imagine the delight my children, good swimmers all, took in it!
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.
