Reading

I just finished reading Nausea (by Jean-Paul Sartre), and I must say I've been in a weird mood for the past few days while reading it. I have been reflecting on this, and I think it's partly that although I understand the book, and other "deep" literature like it, I also absorb powerful works of literature in some way... I take on the voice and spirit of the narrator even after the book has ended, and it's almost like possession...

I guess you could say I get really into my reading.

And all I can do is read a book to stay awake
And it rips my life away, but it's a great escape
