PLATFORM Michel Houellebecq

If you read PLATFORM on a beach in Thailand, farang women will regard you the same way they view fat German tourists in bikini briefs waddling down the beach bracketed by two skinny go-go girls. The author narrates a tale of a French functionaire inheriting a fortune and wasting this money on sex trips to Asia. Sound familiar?

During his travels the hero comments on blacks wanting to be white, Arabs as nothing but rabid terrorists, and backpackers fat fucks while extolling the virtues of sex tourism. Intellectuals hated this book, because of its overt political incorrectness. Not to say that fans of spy and detective novels will be able to get past the Frenchie’s writing style, unless they flip to page 43 for the first sex episode.
Sex sells, but not always
Years ago I wrote a novel about pornography in LA.
NORTH NORTH HOLLYWOOD.
A friend later thought it film worthy and adapted it to a script. He shopped the screenplay to the studios and we received one serious offer. The woman producer was impressed with the story line and the character development. She gave it to her boss. We had a meeting with her in New York. She liked the script, but her husband loved it. “He had sex four times with me after reading it.”
“Great.” My friend and I thought. “We’re going to be in the movies.”
“Problem is I’m divorcing my husband next week. And I’m also moving to Disney.”
NORTH NORTH HOLLYWOOD was really Disney material and neither is PLATFORM

Then everyone dies in the end.
Seems he left out bestiality and necrophilia. Probably literary oversights.
The book cost 450 baht, which is almost the price for a short-time on Soi 6.
The book will take a few days to read. While short-time at Soi 6 will take as long as you need.
You decide which is more important.
