...think I succeeded in doing that. That's not to say that all men are alcoholics or sexual predators, certainly not. But there is a way in which we view the world that is not unlike some of the stuff that goes through Bunny's head, a sort of running sexual commentary. Some men will admit this and some men won't. Women also like the character because I've revealed something they've suspected about men all along...

...named the book The Death of Bunny Munro, which sort of gives away the ending. Why remove the element of surprise? It does take the element of surprise out but it ramps up the tension quite a lot. We know he's going to die, but we don't know how he's going to do it. He's constantly in life-threatening situations, so when he does die it's kind of a shock...

Your last album with the Bad Seeds, Dig Lazarus Dig!!! was about Lazarus being raised from the dead. And now this book also focuses on death. What about the experience of death interests you?

...team to point itself in the right direction. Alas, the Crimson was shut out last Friday by Long Beach State, having its 10-game home unbeaten streak snapped in the process. Sunday’s 3-2 loss to Hofstra concluded the weekend. It bears repeating that this sort of opening performance is not necessarily cause for panic. First of all, Harvard’s caliber of schedule is no joke. Hofstra was coming off a near-upset of No. 25 Indiana and beat Princeton earlier in the year. As for Long Beach State, the 49ers had dominated...

...speculate that America might be experiencing something similar to the downfall of Rome. Yet you reject that idea. The main reason I'm optimistic is because America is a society that is constantly refreshed by immigration. The demography of this country is changing so constantly and unpredictably that I sort of think it's going to be renewed and refreshed and changed going forward. I also don't think this is a despicable or amoral society. I just think it's of a warped and alienated and weird time...
