So, there I was reading my boy Stephen Marche's most recent provocation about Alain Robbe-Grillet (a pretentious mid-century French novelist, surely beloved by most of the untenured faculty at York University) and I got to thinking about the Frogs I like, namely Michel Houellebecq, author of one of the most fantastically deranged novels ever written, The Elementary Particles. Should you be in doubt about how awesome this book is, check out IMDB's list of keywords for the recent German film adapation, Elementarteilchen;
* Night Club
* Camping
* Oral Sex
* Casual Sex
* Hallucination
* Sex In Swimming Pool
