Yeesh, he's really degraded in the last few years. I guess that's what drinking and smoking and fucking all in excess will do to you.

>>7693910

>He famously claims to be indifferent to the honours and attention he attracts. As we chat on the steps, a BBC film crew buzzes around us. Houellebecq waves them away with his fag smoke and we start to talk about dogs, in particular, his faithful pet, a Pembroke corgi called Clement, who has been left behind in the author's home near Dublin.

>'This is one of the difficulties of fame and travelling,' says Houellebecq. 'It is always hard to abandon him.' Houellebecq reminds me that this is the same breed as the Queen's dogs ('I am more English than the English', he jokes lamely). Then, for a brief moment, he looks genuinely near to tears, raising his doe eyes heavenward. 'The love of a dog is a pure thing,' he says. 'He gives you a trust which is total. You must not betray it.'

Clement died.

mid-life crisis involving the realization that his touch of genius was very temporary and that he doesn't have anything to talk about besides his sex fantasies and his passive aggressive racism. compensating by being visually and verbally outrageous on television to try to stay relevant and edgy. thinks the whole world needs to think he is a tortured artist when he could just retire and live off royalties.

>being this dismissive of the greatest contemporary diagnostician of late liberalism

Which offended demographic do you identify with?

>>7694078
So he's Bukowski

>>7694078
>he doesn't have anything to talk about besides his sex fantasies and his passive aggressive racism.

You do realize the bulk of his work is poetry, not novels? In the last five years he has produced only a single novel but three books of poetry.

Is it AIDS?

>>7694078
is you serious

This literally happens in a Houellebecq novel.

>>7696169
wow

>>7695803
this is how french people see him because they are forced to encounter him in popular media once a week as opposed to everywhere else in the world, that picks up atomised and laughs and cries along with the work

I'd produce a smile which I hope to be disarming.

>>7695771
His face will still be ugly, plus his hair is extremly thin, it is at the stage where it looks thicker when long.

he (houellebecq) gets brutally killed though

I've read "Whatever". Novel is somehow comfy, but his reasoning in the last part of the book is just off-going in terms of mood. Like you starting a new book within another. It was rather good, actually.

>>7694014
dogs are literally servant animals

The Kidnapping of Michel Houellebecq was quite funny desu
