British writers' preferred dialect terms. Mine would have to be SHOOGLY, but I have also been reading B.'s materials for the PR exam and he will attest to the fact that I can't stop expressing my desire for a pair of wompers....
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.
