Is Charlotte Roche the lady JG Ballard? The passages I’ve read are quite horrible (this from someone who adores Elfriede Jelinek, even at her most scathing) nevertheless, I’m delighted to see a book described as part Crash, part Germaine Greer’s The Female Eunuch.

I try not to post this kind of stuff, and just wait for them to meme through other blogs, but …um, well, just see for yourself. “Edward Smith, who lives with his current ‘girlfriend’ – a white Volkswagen Beetle named Vanilla, insisted that he was not ’sick’ and had no desire to change his ways.” (Plus a gallery of totally safe for work photos!)
