Seems like it might be a good source for VoC names though.

    I'm starting to see a sort of theme re Alina's buddies. Here's another "work" by the author of the NYMag article quoted in the indels paper: _*House of Holes: A Book of Raunch*_ is a 2011 novel by American writer NicholsonBaker. It consists of a series of chapters that are more or less connected (some more, some less) which tell of thesexual and emotional experiences of a variety of characters in a kind of sexual fantasy land, the titular "House ofHoles".[1] The third "dirty novel" by Baker after _Vox_ and _The Fermata_,[2] it is praised by many reviewers for theinventiveness of its language.[3][4][5]

    Excellent idea! I remember trying to read Vox years ago and giving up.
