Robert Borski is the author of two books about Gene Wolfe,
Solar Labyrinth and
The Long and the Short of It. In his passage through life he reckons himself to be somewhere between late-blooming child prodigy and premature senescence. He tends to write his poetry while looking out over the Wisconsin River, which flows past his bedroom window.
When asked to name his favourite fruit, he replied, "My favorite fruit, despite an act of Congress declaring them to be a vegetable, is the tomato, and I am addicted to the Black Krim and Cherokee Purple varieties. Given the phenomenon known as 'cat-scratching,' some of these can look downright spooky, as if Dr. Frankenstein had practiced his surgical skills on tomatoes."
