Teaser Tuesday

• Grab your current read.
• Let the book fall open to a random page.
• Share with us two "teaser" sentences from somewhere on that page.
• You also need to share the title of the book that you’re getting your “teaser” from. That way people can have some great book recommendations if they like the teaser you’ve given!
Please avoid spoilers!

Rouse Up O Young Men of the New Age! by Kenzaburo Oe
Page 55 - Because he has learned to take his medication regularly, Eeyore hasn't suffered another major seizure like the one that terrified me, but there have been a number of episodes during the past two years that were the like harbingers of a seizure. Whenever this happened and he had to stay home from school and spend the day on the couch, my son would mournfully announce a new abnormality in some organ of his body: "Ah! There's not a sound coming from my heart! I think I'm dying! My heart isn't making a sound!"

I like your teaser, but I am sure it would make more sense ( and I would be able to understand the tone) better in context.

Thank you for sharing! :D

This is one author that is pushing my buttons this week and this excerpt is a great example of how and why.
