Summary: True heroic ending
Review: What can I say about Jitterbug that hasn't been said already, it is a true American classic. I was sceptic about reading it only because I really didn't understand the first chapter but once you get into it; there is no looking back. It is one of those books that makes your mind project images you could have never thought of on your one, very amazing if you ask me. The end is the best part, you might not understand it but when you read the end, you will jump for joy, I know I did.

Summary: ILLUMINATING
Review: Am I wrong to be so swayed by the evolution of conciousness(sp) introduced by Robbins? Of course, in order to have written such an idea, one would have to have thought about it. Jitterbug Perfume changed my life, more than any other book I have read, more than any other drug I have had. For now, until I devise a proper review, all I will say is that words, ideas, and thoughts are all I ever needed to get myself out of bed in the morning! SEA

Summary: Literary equivalent of psychedelic mushrooms!
Review: Tom Robbins is a writer of unparalled vision. If you've never read his novels, you haven't experienced mind-boggling literature at its' best. Robbins' work (ALL of it) is the rare form of reading that not only entertains (and oh my, does it!) but truly enlightens. His novels are full of laugh-out-loud humor & insight. Do yourself a favor & read this novel or any of his others.

Summary: I WORSHIP YOU TOM!
Review: I am down on my knees, waving my hands up and down in the air at the feet of the master writer, Tom Robbins, the KING of metaphors! Never, ever have I read a book that literally blew my mind on every page. This man writes as no one I've ever read before. His irony and sense of humor are sparkling. I plan to read this book over and over and over. He is the soul of wit! I LOVE YOU TOM and thanks ANGIE-BUG for turning me on to "Jitterbug Perfume". I owe you for this one!

Summary: You'll never be the same again!
Review: Reading a Tom Robbins novel is like eating a new food for the first time, and pleasantly finding it sweet to the nose and succulent to the tongue. Only with Jitterbug Perfume there is sensory overload for all six senses, plus a few unchartered ones. The entanglements of some unforgettable characters, the search for immortality and the stench of beetroot pollen will forever live in your mind after reading this book. In fact, you will most likely read it several times, even keep it under your pillow at night just in case you need a hit of Tom Robbins' wit. What are you doing reading this when you could be reading Jitterbug Perfume, huh??
