Tom Robbins is brilliant. And he dropped out of college. Ballsy.
Possibly my favorite of Vonnegut's work.

This an easy read and has the best ending I could ever hope to discover in a novel.

Seriously, get it. Granted you'll have to ignore all things in it dealing with technology. Considering all the small animals you'll be able to torture with the knowledge you'll gain from this literature, it's totally worth it.
Roasted peanuts, crispy critters, holy water buffalos, cancer, people drowning in shit, all with a hint of Apocalypse Now's crazed lunacy. And if that's not enough to fill you up, there's Lemon pie for dessert.
I know there was some reason I enjoyed this book. Maybe it was the sex slave thing... Can't quite remember. Oh well.
The book is great, but I swear to God if I hear another media douchebag use the word 'Orwellian' to describe some recent loss of civil liberties, I'll kill myself. Though I suppose it's partially my fault. After all, since when has the media said anything worth listening to?
Meet me in the 2nd circle. Unless of course Christians got it right, then I'll be with all the other blasphemers.
The cover alone could sell this book. Suck it, PETA!
Only a lunatic would write something like this.
Fitzgerald may have been less than impressive in 'stature' (Hemingway said it not me) and a drunk but he manages to produce something here that makes me and every other half-witted writer think they can throw together the next "great American novel". Granted, we'll have to die before anyone will take notice.
Fuckin' pigs.
Poo-Tee-Weet?
I don't know what this book was about, but I hope it involved someone giving the guy on the cover a fresh razor.
One of few individuals who had the right idea about life. And look where it got him.
The last chapter of this book seems to have gone unwritten for one reason or another.
Obviously it wasn't funny enough for the author.
Some people may like this book but I found it made me quite soporific.
Definitively showing that Christians are the bane of existence.
Where the fuck was she when Bush & Co. were spouting their diarrhea about how the terrorists hate us because we're rich and free?
Every history teacher I've ever had should have this book forcibly shoved up their asses. Those pricks were too busy teaching from a state-approved book to give me any real knowledge, or themselves any real dignity.
Aside from the fact that Krakauer isn't too creative with book titles, this is a decent book to browse so long as you enjoy seeing people at the mercy of angered Mother Nature.
A prime example of what is wrong with philosophers in the first place. This poor Danish bastard wrote a book about faith. It's a damn shame that he based it upon the premise that his anthropomorphic, Christian God is real and that this story actually happened. Kind of a waste if you take those variables out of the equation, dick.
