What's she look like? Is she a babe? She got good legs? What's her measurements?

Is she better looking than Sophie Ellix-Bextor for surely this is IMPOSSIBLE?

eight months pass...

no one has read either? surely someone has?

""Darrieussecq, a first-time novelist at 27, approaches fiction with all the nuance of a Trotskyist pamphleteer"

Sounds like your kind of thing, G., why don't you read and let us know how it is...
