The experience of sex is one that cannot be properly conveyed in words, even by the greatest literary artists. And that gaggle above sure ain't among them  . I propose a minimum ten years moratorium on the depiction of sex scenes in any work of fiction, whatsoever. At the end of it I doubt we'll have gained any more insightful sex scenes, but we'll at least have been spared reams of cringey creepiness in literature. |

Interesting that the two worst ones are by the female authors!

Right.
Liver, almond, raw fish, omelette rolls, eat every shred....
These fools think that blinking is a meal.
Except for the one who went on about the red balloon.

Bitter old has-been Morrissey won it in 2015.
I'd give it one star just for the seemingly unintended humour - which is anyway killed by the final six clinical words.
I'd like to have seen Johnny Marr try to put that sh*te to music. He could be writing about a chimps' tea party gone wrong.

Interesting that the two worst ones are by the female authors! I recall someone doing something along the lines of a re-write of Pride and Prejudice a few years back, that included scenes of Elizabeth and Mr. Darcy going off to have some illicit pre-marital flings in the shrubbery. From what I recall the sex sequences were 'ugh' enough. Don't recall if the author was male or female, but I do wish the ladies would return to writing more with the wit and grace of Jane, and less with the urge to prove they can hold their own with Spillane.

Terry Sothern's "Candy" from the 1960's is pure vulgar trash.

Wonder how a Will Self sex scene would read.

I used to have a hobby of finding Smiths fans and saying "good guitarist, but they should dump the shit singer". Hours of fun to be had.
