He entered university only in his late 30s, completing an English Literature and Linguistics (Hons) degree from the University of Sheffield. He then moved to Worcester, Massachusetts, where he attended Clark University, earning an M.A. in 1996. He retired as professor emeritus of English in 2017. He now spends his time reading, writing, and tracking down quality beers, accompanied by his wife on their travels at home and abroad.
