  1. Interesting.

    Have you read Douglas Adam's books? The character who lives 'outside the asylum' come from there. His house is painted and furnished on the outside.

  2. I often feel 'in' and 'out' are a relative matter. For me Japan is a big asylum for those who need protection from outside the world. So I am 'outside the asylum'.

    As a matter of fact it's true that Japan forms a language island.
    As the inlets of Langerhans it produces insulin, which is probably bitter.

    Many people believe they live inside the asylum. A kind of feeling they live outside the asylum is strange, used to be often called 'estrangement'.

    I live inside the asylum to keep myself sane. Internet community is for me an asylum.

    'Outside the asylum' is something that expresses some impossibility from its own. I guess autistic people might not equip this natural ventilation in their mind.

    I didn't know as to the novel. I found lots of entry other than his in search engine, so I thought the title is from someone else.
