"Everyone knows that, to be a true work of artistic expression, he'd have to shoot the book, smear it with dung, and leave it soaking in a bucket of bladder juice outside the mosque."

I'd have to disagree I think that stark nature of this piece says more about the artist's state of mind. Anything else would have been an overstatement. No I think he was going for a direct, and simple statement about his unresolved inner angst. The artist most likely had an overbearing father figure growing up who left him feeling stiffled and unable to express his feelings in a normal manner.
Oh, just like Mohammed!
