Thank Your Mother for the Rabbits is the unconventional autobiography of the Canadian novelist who was a malingerer in Her Majesty's Armed Forces, a radar technician on the DEW-line, a Gandy-dancer for the CPR, a maths crammer in an eccentric private school, friend and confidante of Irving Layton and Milton Acorn, the owner of a steam laundry in Montreal, professor of Chaucerian studies at Simon Fraser, and, after decades of atheism, a convert to Christianity.
His essays have appeared in Bad Trips, The MacMillan Anthology, Best Canadian Essays 1989 and The Georgia Straight. He has published four novels, The Land of Is, The October Men, Skevington's Daughter, and Runner in the Dark.
