Writers put brave face on bad sex awards

LONDON (Reuters) - There cannot be much good in bad sex, unless maybe it wins you a prize.

Two authors put on a brave face at being recognised for one of literatures most dubious accolades — the Bad Sex in Fiction Award — in a ceremony at In & Out Club in upmarket St. James’s Square late on Wednesday.

The prize was presented by American singer Courtney Love.

What organisers call Britain’s “most dreaded literary prize” went to first time novelist Iain Hollingshead and “Twentysomething” for the “passage considered to be the most redundant in an otherwise excellent novel”.

The award sponsors at Literary Review magazine said it was Hollingshead’s “bulging trousers” which put him ahead of runner-up Tim Willocks for “The Religion”.
