I need a shower.

My book recommendation of the month is The God Of Small Things by Arundhati Roy. This book is so... real... and personal. It's like this is the author's life regardless of it's fiction classification... it leads you into your own mind, relating your life to the quirks and thoughts of the characters. Magnificent I say!
Not to mention Roy's use of the language... very natural and unique, it feels this is the way it should be used. Not constrained by any official teaching...

"As a very young child my mother gave me a book called Free Writing and we were encouraged to write fearlessly."


Here's a bit of an interview with her although it's probably best if you read her book for a better look...

I need to bathe myself... it's late
