When reality beats fiction

In case you don't know it, French surgeon managed a face transplant, 2 weeks ago, and it's really turning into a Nip/Tuck episode since the recovering patient has already signed a contract with some media group...it's  a freak show now.

Well, I need some good fantasy. Going to bed with Jasper Fford's Lost In a Good Book, which I highly recommend for its nonsensish wicked humour.

Hey I heard about that too. Life imitating art again for real this time.

The funny thing is that event occured just after the episode of Nip/Tuck about the face transplant. Except that Sean and Christian failed on screen while the surgeons here succeeded.

Of course our heroes kinda did it a while back when they changed the tattoed mobster's face, turning it into the face of another big criminal which got him arrested by the cops! That twist was so great.
