What's Up Eleanor?

I'm sure I heard Eleanor Catton talking about how badly she deals with criticism one morning on someone or other's radio chat show.  Did anyone else hear it?   Did I perhaps dream it?  
I'm just wondering why someone who frets for days over critical comments would say the things she has recently been reported as saying in far away India or wherever it was.   Did she maybe think she was so far away it would never filter back?      Is she trying to deal with her sensitivities by exposing herself to the inevitable and mighty backlash? - like taking a spider into your bed when they actually make your blood run cold.    Is she maybe a closet masochist?
