***Just one... err... remark. ;-) That nail-in-the-ass woman
scene is a direct reference to Remark. Since Black Obelisk
is my favourite of his books, it was apparent to me.Undeservingly, his is not a household name here as it is in certain other parts of the world. Different cultures have different focal points and the European preoccupation with the WWI mayhem doesn't resonate well here. Europe has paid back by largelly ignoring the US open wounds - the Korea and Vietnam wars.
Also interesting is the fact, that although most of us eat and slept with his books in our teens, and many (myself included) would then name him among their favorite writers, I see very few people go back to his work later - in their mature years - don't you agree? I remember getting into a fierce fight with my father who once burst my ballon (while I was sleep-walking reading the Front) by stating that Remark was the great writer for less than mature audience.
Whatever the reason, few thousand miles of separation is bound to create difference in G-spots.
