Anyone enjoy his two books "House of God" and "Mount Misery"?

🙂
 
I did. They are both classics although the 1st book is more well known
 
I thought Mount Misery was better. So many things in House of God didn't seem real. The nurses still wore little white uniforms. There were orgies all over the place.
Some things in Mount Misery seemed a little off the wall too though. Just thought it was more interesting.
 
House of God has the quotables that everyone in medicine uses. Mount Misery has more meaning for the people in this forum.
