I need to vent

This is really silly of me but I have had to stop reading Kazuro Isiguro's book "The Buried Giant" because of the mention of rabbits. Rabbits are not native to the UK and were introduced by the Normans (and I wish they hadn't) for hunting purposes. So a book about England in the Dark Ages (even a fantastical one) shouldn't have rabbits. I know this book has many elements of fantasy but I can take ogres but not rabbits. Yes I'm being unreasonable but the rabbits have stopped me reading the book.

Now I'll have to explain to the friend who gave me the book what my problem is and I think I might come across as a bit narrow-minded and intolerant.
