TIL Morrissey wrote a novel that was published in 2015. It got a ton of negative reviews and won the "bad sex award for love scenes" that year.

The love scene in question:

At this, Eliza and Ezra rolled together into one giggling snowball of full-figured copulation, screaming and shouting as they playfully bit and pulled at each other in a dangerous and clamorous rollercoaster coil of sexually violent rotation with Eliza’s breasts barrel-rolled across Ezra’s howling mouth and the pained frenzy of his bulbous salutation extenuating his excitement as it whacked and smacked its way into every muscle of Eliza’s body except for the otherwise central zone.

Falls completely flat without Johnny Marr’s guitar work.

That’s the worst writing I’ve ever seen. This guy writes for a living? Do people enjoy his works?

Edit: no, and no.

I am going to guess he's just borrowing from something from his past but has trouble translating it into something people would more traditionally get. But ultimately, I don't know too much about Morrissey - other than at one point he was liked culturally (by those who listened to him) and then there was a sharp turn in which he is now greatly disliked. I enjoy The Smiths, although I'm not gunna lie and be absolutely honest in that I found them as an adult. But all things aside I am wondering if it's because he is quite vocal about his opinions and they are quite unfavorable. And once you are seen as an "enemy of the status quo" you are open for ridicule as a whole.

But also he gave things a go. Eh.

But I do know he spoke out against meat and the tories. So eh. But someone else is probably way more tuned in on this as a whole over <<< moi.

He’s kinda a shithead. And by all accounts enjoys being seen in that light. IMO he claims more than his share for the success of The Smiths. Just listen to any Johnny Marr solo songs and it’s clear where their sound came from.

One can imagine him struggling to imagine the scene well enough to write it, then going to a toy shop, buying a Barbie and a Ken and spending the next half hour mashing them against each other in an attempt to visualise it.

Who is Morrisey?

ilinamorato ,

A musician. Like Cher, he’s known by only a single name (though his birth name is Steven).

What is Google?

Had young Morrissey known how pathetic old Morrissey would end up, he would no doubt have written an incredible soul searching song about it.

“Sixty, racist and dumb”, or something.

graymess ,

It’s like he wrote an already weird sex scene description, then right clicked every word and chose the last synonym on the list.

Someone should start a community for that.

There was a literary movement called Oulipo that did things like that. What comment-OP described would be a variant of a technique called “n+7”: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oulipo#Constraints

I bought it on account of hearing how bad it was. I wasn’t disappointed. It’s like The Room in book form, but with unnecessarily flowery language. Brilliantly shite.

If you read that in Morrissey’s voice with “How Soon Is Now” as an earworm, it is slightly titillating.

ymmv

I don’t want to kink shame.

All I know is I don’t want anyone’s breasts doing a barrel-roll across my howling mouth.

kat_angstrom ,

I assumed that it was like motor-boating except with 360 degrees rotation, which is definitely a normal and not at all weird thing

Damn. There goes a potential match!

Have you considered providing the chesticles in such a scenario?
