In the article which Eric directed us to [thanks by the way] about MH, it describes the plot of his book "platform"

"The novel?s central idea ­ that financially solvent but sexually uncharismatic Western men should make common cause with Third World women who ?have nothing left to sell except their bodies and their unspoiled sexuality,? bringing about a mercenary sexual relationship satisfactory to both parties"

Have YOU been reading Houellebecq, Irene?
