He is by all means a cynical pomo neo-luddite, tech-hater, macho-booster, anti-civ brat.

imo luddites can be saved. but he's not a tech-hater by no means. and he's more of a femm-boy (echoing Duchamp) by macho if you mean the awful book he wrote about prostitute, i agree. it's quite unreadable.

there are some short stories he wrote in the style of some Japanese masters. they're good and very much erotic.

I was going to say that this is another sign of his macho-ness, idolizing xenophobic, anti-modern, imperial puritans like Mishima.

You remember that Daphne du Maurier was well translated in Iran. All these literary snobs were always telling me when I was a teenager, why are you reading these vulgar books. I waited 10 years to tell them, 'what the fuck do you know about literature?'
