Funny, sharp; filled with mind-blowing metaphors and drug-induced philosophical and cosmological talk - well, I'm still only at the beginning and this is my first experience of Tom Robbins. Don't see myself slacking off here anytime soon!




Fierce Invalids Home From Hot Climates was very good. His very best, in my opinion, is Even Cowgirls Get the Blues.

I've been through that book more times than I can mention. It always seems to be a good time to pick it up again.

Him or Kurt V. Jr. I can't decide which sounds more plausible.

Trainspotting was great, but Welsh? Nah, I'm not buyin' it.
