Literature’s Most Notorious Award is Back

What is literature’s most notorious award?  Why, the “Bad Sex in Fiction” award, of course!

The 2016 nominees are listed in the article above and I can’t help but paste one of the examples of bad sex in fiction from the article below.  It’s a howler, for sure, courtesy of Jonathan Safran Foer:

“He jerked off with the determination of someone within sight of Everest’s summit, having lost all his friends and Sherpas, having run out of supplemental oxygen, but preferring death to failure.”

O……kay?!

I’ll be curious to read some of the other nominees.

For intellectual reasons, of course.
