it was ironic

he read that Annie Ernaux won the Nobel Peace Prize for Literature

every year with the news he sought to read a book by the winning author he had the majority of Bob Dylans vinyl 

he thought hed start with her Happening

                                           anwha happened  his online library search informed him Happening was available only as an ebook

an ebook

utterly worthless to him

                         whawas the experience of reading words emotions in light and not printed on paper these words were ironic 

             reminiscent of on-screen porn

   succinctly

               hed rather be having sex than watching itrather a book in hand than his cock

                                                                                                 made perfect sense

 

“There is no such thing as a lesser truth.” Ernaux
