Freedom

However embarrassing it might be, i’ve realized that OneRepublic’s sappy songs allow me to swallow overdoses of -mildly- depressing books.  Reading an ethnography on the desolation of human condition just seems all the more forlorn with “Good Life” playing in the shop background.  Either that or Franzen is just THAT good, his narrative is gripping, the characters cling onto your clothes and leave a trail in a song.
