Musicophilia

I've been stuck on this book for some time. Could never seem to find the time to read it. The subject matter is pretty interesting. I love the story at the opening of the book. A surgeon with no musical training could miraculously start playing the piano and composing pieces after being struck by lightning. This reminds me a little of Phenomenon when John Travolta's character was also struck by a lightning/ UFO and became highly intelligent + possessing magnetic powers. Just love stories like that...
