  urlLink Guardian Unlimited Books | News | Bad sex prizewinner flies in : "It's all a bit hazy in the minds of the judges - one was nursing a shocking hangover, another claimed he had just returned from his psychotherapist - but it was probably the word 'endomorphically' what dunnit.
As in: 'Her breasts are placards for the endomorphically endowed. ' The Literary Review's Bad Sex Prize, which reaches the parts other prizes can only moan about, was won last night by the Indian author Aniruddha Bahal, for his novel Bunker 13.
His publishers, Faber and Faber, flew him in from Delhi to receive his statuette. Columnist and former Today programme editor Rod Liddle was almost struck out on the grounds that his sex scenes were actually rather well done, but his novel Too Beautiful for You, ('after a modicum of congenial thrusting, she came with the exhilarating whoops and pant-hoots of a troop of Rhesus monkeys') was reinstated after he said the judges were unqualified, since nobody on the Literary Review had had sex since 1936, in Abyssinia. The prize was started 11 years ago by the late Auberon Waugh, to mock 'redundant passages of sexual description in the modern novel'. "
