>"It's been fucked for a long time, since the beginning. You will never represent, Raphael, a young girl's erotic dream. It is necessary to come to terms with this; such things are not for you. In any case, it is already too late. The sexual failure that you have known since your adolescence and the frustration that has followed you since the age of thirteen has left in you an indelible mark. Supposing that that you could someday get women - something which I very frankly doubt - that will not be enough. Nothing will ever be enough. You will remain an orphan of those adolescent romances that you never knew. In you, the wound is already painful; it will become more and more so. An atrocious, bitterness, without remission will end up filling your heart."

What book is this from? I'm thinking of getting into more Houellebeq. I really enjoyed Submission.

It's from his first novel "Whatever" (aka "Extension of the Domain of the Struggle")
It's 32k words long, 120 pages or so, but really packs a punch.

The Elementary Particles
It's probably one of the most depressing books I've ever read. Have fun.
