The Raw Shark Texts
I was reading a review of a book I really enjoyed and they quoted this line "It was small - maybe nine inches. Maybe the length of a worry that doesn't quite wake you in your asleep. A primitive, conceptual fish. I backed away slowly. The creature had a round, sucker-like mouth lined with dozens of sharp little doubts and inadequacies. I could feel it just downstream from me, holding itself in place with muscled, steady swimming against the movement of time." I really like that. The article is the NPR review of The Raw Shark Texts by Steven Hall. It was on my list of reccomendations. I think I'll be revisiting it soon myself.
