vivo per lei, la musica!
29 Sep 2005 08:37 pmAll right, everyone - it's almost the last day of the month, which means Fahye Downloads Like Crazy Because The Limit Gets Reset Soon.
So.
If you have the time and YouSendIt is obliging, I am humbly requesting:
1) A song that makes you happy whenever you hear it
2) A song that gets stuck in your head and causes you to break into song at embarrassing moments
3) A song that is your current stick-on-repeat-for-hours favourite
Or anything else you feel like gifting me with :D
Happy birthday to![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
lunamystic (again), freeformchick and cyrulean! When I finish my current project I will write you all the drabble-fic-thing of your desiring, so leave comments here.

I've finished The House of God by Samuel Shem and somehow I still want to do medicine. My parents made me buy and read it as a kind of trial. I can't really describe it as a book; that said, of course I'm going to try. It's sort of like being let into someone's nightmare, horror alternating with pornography and brief flashes of amazement. Something from the subconscious, characters larger than life and the feeling that the only reason you're not taking it seriously is because if you did then you'd go just as mad as the narrator. It's raw. Utterly human, purely cynical with occasional streaks of compassion. Maybe not everyone's cup of tea, but somehow a book about the filthy degrading work of an intern and the way a world can close in on itself and become unreal manages to spill over with clever language and imagery too stark to be lovely but very, very good.
Read it.
