Auslander Trashes Hotel Room

As “remarked earlier”:http://www.heebmagazine.com/blog/view/389, it’s not easy being the second coming of Phillip Roth.

The ex-ultra-Orthodox Shalom Auslander, whose novel “_Foreskin’s Lament_”:http://www.amazon.com/Foreskins-Lament-Memoir-Shalom-Auslander/dp/1594489556/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1/002-1412792-8648047?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1193621588&sr=8-1 is currently Amazon’s #1 read Jewish book, seems forever doomed to be ultra-pissed. Take, for example, Auslander’s antics following a recent public appearance in Chicago.

According to sources, Auslander was less than chipper about being housed at the “Hotel Cass”:http://www.casshotel.com/, which he claimed was too cold. The sorrowful scribe was also miffed that he had to walk down the street to buy himself a cup of soup when he coveted a late night snack. Auslander’s hosts eventually moved him to the luxury hotel “Allegro”:http://www.allegrochicago.com/ after he threatened to humiliate them by writing about his less-than-satisfactory stay.

Well, it’s not “Scott Weiland”:http://www.tmz.com/2007/03/25/scott-weiland-and-wife-trash-hotel-in-bloody-fight/ kicking the crap out of a Burbank hotel room, but this may be as rock n’ roll as it gets on the Jewish book circuit.

What do you think?
