The judges for the Bad Sex In Fiction Award have decided not to subject us to more horror in 2020.
Since 1993, the Literary Review has presented an annual Bad Sex in Fiction Award for the worst description of a sex scene in a novel – and this year that honour went to Rowan Somerville, who narrowly edged out Franzen and Campbell with the sexy, sexy line “like a lepidopterist mounting a tough-skinned insect with a too blunt pin he screwed himself into her.”
