      About This Book

      A startlingly original novel from the New York Times bestselling author hailed by Financial Times as "one of the wildest and most entertaining novelists in the world"

      "[Tom] Robbins's comic philosophical musings reveal a flamboyant genius."—People

      Still Life with Woodpecker is a sort of a love story that takes place inside a pack of Camel cigarettes. It reveals the purpose of the moon, explains the difference between criminals and outlaws, examines the conflict between social activism and romantic individualism, and paints a portrait of contemporary society that includes powerful Arabs, exiled royalty, and pregnant cheerleaders. It also deals with the problem of redheads.

      "Robbins is a fabulous storyteller."—The Boston Globe
