I was born in Caernarvon, North Wales and educated at Clifton College and New College, Oxford.
Since 1972 I have lived in Amsterdam. Up to 2002 I taught translation studies and English literature at the University of Amsterdam.
My published books include: A Present from Hugo, Down the Rabbit Hole, Barbaren (novels); The Tiger Who Lost His Stripes (for children), The Torture of the Mind; Macbeth, tragedy and chiasmus, a doctoral thesis on Shakespeare, . In continuation of this literary-academic work I am at present involved in the International Rhetoric Culture Project (www.rhetoricculture.org).
From 1979 to 2001 I wrote many book reviews for the weekly Vrij Nederland), and interviewed such writers as Joseph Heller, Margaret Atwood, Anthony Burgess .
I have painted all my life, since 2002 intensively. For me, the most important part of my artistic education has consisted in looking hard for many years at the world around me and at all kinds of art.
