The passage reads as follows, "That night she cradled me in her arms and soothed me; told me what I needed to be told; strengthened me ... On that night of 12 May 1994 I needed that love [she] gave me, selfishly," he wrote."I devoured it to give me strength. I was an animal following my instinct."

Blair's Bad Sex Award
Sex News heads to England where former British Prime Minister Tony Blair is in the running for the dubious prize in literature - the Bad Sex Award.
A passage from his new autobiography, A Journey, has Blair reminiscing about a night of passion with his wife. It was such an uncomfortable passage that Britain’s Literary Review magazine made him the first writer of a non-fiction work to be considered for the "honor".
The passage reads as follows, "That night she cradled me in her arms and soothed me; told me what I needed to be told; strengthened me ... On that night of 12 May 1994 I needed that love [she] gave me, selfishly," he wrote."I devoured it to give me strength. I was an animal following my instinct."
