Best/worst hangover scene in literature?
Felt pretty dusty this morning after a long night of beers and whiskey and got to thinking about that one hangover scene in Suttree. I thought "Man, am I glad to not be THAT hungover".
What are some of your favourite hangover scenes in books that you've read?
Here's a small excerpt from Suttree on that one particular hangover:
>He looked down at himself, caked in filth, his pockets turned out. He tried to swallow but his throat constricted in agony. Tottering to his feet he stood reeling in that apocalyptic waste like some biblical relict in a world no one would have.
>He wandered into a narrow alleyway and fell to his hands and knees and began to vomit. Nothing would come but a thin green bile and then nothing at all, his stomach contracting in dry and vicious spasms that racked him and left him sweaty and shivering and weak when they ceased.
