Susan McKay, formerly the Sunday Tribune’s much respected NI correspondent, was a guest on “The View” tonight, RTE’s weekly arts, film and book review programme. Discussing a new novel by Kevin Major titled “No Man’s Land” she described it as “prick lit”.
Harold Robbins, who might claim to have been a pathfinder in that particular genre, might well be annoyed that he wasn’t accorded this accolade during his long career. It’s good for the boys to finally have something to counter the “chick lit” revolution.
I’m still smiling.
