That is also my favorite. I read it on my honeymoon (and my wife is a redhead)…have awesome memories of lying in a beach hammock for hours reading it

Tom Robbins came to my University as a speaker … he was hilarious! I brought my large stack of well worn books and he graciously signed every single one with the word “boom!” “Still Life with Woodpecker” was my first and favorite.
