Read this book and celebrate ... existence.             Skinny Legs and All110 reviews Tom Robbins Bantam, 1995 The Joshua Tree is to music as Skinny Legs And All is to fiction. One of the top all time best fiction books ever. I try to imagine being in the mind of Tom Robbins. He's a renaissance man if I ever knew one, with knowledge and interests that span across the worlds, and he touches them all in this hysterically funny, spiritual, romantic book of intertwined stories.             Villa Incognito99 reviews Tom Robbins Bantam, 2004 A polarizing book. It seems to me that Tom Robbins books are hit or miss. This book is one of the more polarizing titles. However, I think its gotten a bad rap. Considerably shroter than most of his books, I think its enjoyable as a quick read. I guess some people want and expect something longer from Robbins. I was a little set-off by the beastiality scenes early in the story. But you really have to ...             Still Life with Woodpecker168 reviews Tom Robbins Bantam, 1990 Amazing I'm buying this book for a second time. I love Robbin's rhythm. This book in particular will let you in on the secret of us red heads! Enjoi!             Jitterbug Perfume181 reviews Tom Robbins Bantam, 1990 An amazing story that actually comes together at the end! This book is one long trip. You'll be confused and you'll be amazed, and you'll question everything that you know...and then it all concludes in a neat little package. I am OBSESSED with this book and have been since my friend Tracy made me read it 15 years ago. Finding the formula will become your obsession. In short, read this book. And someone please make a movie.             Half Asleep in Frog Pajamas82 reviews Tom Robbins Bantam, 1995 If you're a Tom Robbins fan, this book will not dissappoint. It's even worth reading twice just to savor his metaphors!             Fierce Invalids Home from Hot Climates210 reviews Tom Robbins Bantam, 2001 Imaginatively Incredible This is the first and, so far, is also the only book of his I've read, and it blows my mind nobody has reviewed it. One of the best books I've ever read. Hilarious, intelligent, thought-provoking, hysterical, creative... Definitely worth the read and I'll be looking into more of his books soon enough.             B Is for Beer Tom Robbins Ecco, 2009             Wild Ducks Flying Backward27 reviews Tom Robbins Bantam, 2006 Robbins & Ducks Tom Robbins has been a favorite writer of mine since the 70's. However, I was only aware of his fiction. In Wild Ducks, I found a whole new genre of his writings and musings. Some essays, some reports, some simply not available for a pigeon hole but all highly entertaining. If you have been a long term fan of Tom Robbins, you owe it to yourself to read this book.             Another Roadside Attraction75 reviews Tom Robbins Bantam, 1990 a slightly mad take on a crazy idea about an unthinkable notion There's an entire whirlpool of madness in this now antic novel. Plots start, develop, then drift away only to reappear in the middle of others. Hints are dropped and left. The story involves an accidental monk who trains to be an assassin and in the catacombs discovers the body of this fellow Jesus. Multiple narrators, reliable and un-, and a happy mix of sex and drugs and slapstick with ...             White Weekends: Where to Ski, Where to Stay, Where to Eat, Where to Party Tom Robbins Transworld Publishers, 2008 In White Weekends , Tom Robbins travels from one end of Europe to the other in a bid to disover the best and most beautiful resorts for independent weekend breaks.

McChesney New Press, 2006 A national disgrace The war is a tragedy and the media coverage of the 2004 presidential election was a farce. That is part of what Nichols and McChesney are telling us in this very readable and important book. More saliently they warn that unless the media reassumes its responsibility to tell the truth about how our government operates and about what it is doing that it hides from us, there is a danger that our ...             Siddhartha (Modern Library)4 reviews Hermann Hesse Modern Library, 2006 new rendition of timeless tale Beautifully translated, evoking the majesty in the simple story of a man in his lifelong journey towards the attainment of Enlightenment. Melodic in its tone but true to the original German Susan Bernofsky's translation has set a new standard among the various English translations currently available. As many times as I have read and enjoyed Siddhartha over the years (about 10 or so readings) ...             Gothic Classics: Graphic Classics Volume 14 (Graphic Classics (Graphic Novels))3 reviews Ann Radcliffe; Jane Austen; Edgar Allan Poe; J. Sheridan Le Fanu; Myla Jo Closser Eureka Productions, 2007 Lady vampires and bodies buried dark and deep I am a big fan of the Graphic Classics series, and I am an even bigger fan of the anthologies, such as "Horror Classics" and "Adventure Classics". The anthologies give us a chance to read some great tales by authors who may not be prolific enough to rate their own individual books, but who have still made a powerful and influential contribution to literature. As expected, this latest ...             The Souls of Animals12 reviews Gary Kowalski New World Library, 2007 Humanity A great book which makes everyone aware that there is a lot more to life,             Into the Wilderness Ron Fisher, John Hess, ...

This sound signals the true beginning of his life -- the beginning of suffering, rejection, peace, and, finally, wisdom.
