Indeed (IJ Post #3)

"Mario Incandenza's nineteenth birthday will be Wednesday 25 November, the day before Thanksgiving. His insomnia worsens as Madame Psychosis's hiatus enters its third week and WYYY tries bringing back poor Miss Diagnosis again, who's started in on a Pig-Latin reading of the Revelation of John that makes you so embarrassed for her it's uncomfortable. For a couple nights in the HmH living room he tries falling asleep to WODS, an AM-fringe outfit that plays narcotizing orchestral arrangements of old Carpenters songs. It makes things worse. It's weird to feel like you miss someone you're not even sure you know" (589).

The power to see, point out to others and share the pain of being subjected to the narcotizing orchestral arrangements pouring out of speakers everywhere. And to sing harshly against the syrupy strings. And to silence them with the beauty of his voice.

Quite well said.
