Platform by Michel Houellebecq

TITLE: Platform
AUTHOR: Michel Houellebecq
READ: January
THOUGHTS: This novel made me re-think how I feel about Houellebecq, probably for the worse. He is very funny and very readable but I think this retreads a lot of what The Elementary Particles does a lot better/more convincingly. I found his didacticsm/moralism a little more palatable in EP, and also the ending of this book is absolutely stupid though still kind of funny I guess.
