He's my favorite modern author. Just read chronologically, or start with Submission. It's his newest, but it's probably the purest distillation of what makes him great.

I've only ever delved into Atomised. Some hawt chick at my work was reading it, so I secretly went out and bought it, purely so I could share in the peverse feeling that I was sharing the same expereience with her.

Did she enjoy it? I imagine it's hard for women to like Houellebecq
