mothers for justice
This story about Houellebecq's Mum getting in a strop over her portrayal in Atomised reminded me of the time Nick Cohen's Mum gave him a slap for calling her a Stalinist. The moral of the story is perhaps not to mention one's mother in print until such time as she is no longer in a position to do serious p.r. and/or physical damage to you.
