Tom Robbins Siwash Ridge had become as quiet and inanimate as the geology book that might describe its formations. Indian summer, the ham, was taking yet another curtain call, and the hills, warmed into an expansive mood, heaped bouquets of asters at its feet. Goldenrod, too. And butterfly weed. Giant sunflowers, like junkie scarecrows on the nod, dozed in one spot with their dry heads drooped upon their breastbones. Their lives extended another day, flies buzzed everything within their range, monotonously eulogizing themselves, like the patriots who persist in praising the glory of a culture long after it is decadent and doomed. from Even Cowgirls Get the Blues
Known for his offbeat plots and inventive style, the American novelist Thomas Eugene Robbins , b. Blowing Rock, N.C., 1936, is widely read by high school and college students. After attending several colleges, Robbins worked as a copy editor for three newspapersthe Richmond Times-Dispatch , the Seattle Times (where he was also art critic), and the Seattle Post-Intelligencer .

Synopsis
Norman Robbins takes his audience back to Nursery-rhyme Land for this lively pantomime of adventure, comedy and magic with all the traditional favourites: the good Fairy Harmony, Georgie Porgie, old King Cole and his scatty Queen Mattiwilda, Dame Sprightly and her son Tom, who rescues the Princess from the naughty Knave of Hearts and his not-so-naughty villains Buckett and Spade. The fun-packed action alternates between simple settings and lane-cloth scenes and helpful production notes are included in the text to ensure a successful, light-hearted, seasonal entertainment that will appeal to all age groups.
Author's Note
The production of this pantomime is a pretty straightforward affair, and should present no great problems to experienced societies. For the benefit of others, however, perhaps the following notes will be of assistance. All the scenes are full or lane-cloth scenes, one following the other. This gives a smooth flow to the action, for there should be little or no delay between scenes. Remember, the longer these changes are, the faster you lose your audiences' concentration. The same reasoning applies to the dialogue. Keep it crisp and well paced. Not rushed, but most certainly not at a funeral pace.

Villa Incognito by Tom Robbins
Tom Robbins
has been dishing out metaphor-rich and metaphysically-playful novels since 1971 when he delivered Another Roadside Attraction . He is a consummate class-clown among authors, ever-prodding his readers with his wit and crazy wisdom and never failing to entertain.
His latest work, Villa Incognito , begins with 3 American MIAs who choose to remain missing after the Vietnam war, but as is always the case with a Tom Robbins' work, careens gleefully into untold realms of myth and imagination.

Lori Aurelia Williams Tom Robbins: an outrageous writer in a politically correct era INTERVIEW BY MICHAEL SIMS Tom Robbins believes in truth in advertising. His novels lure the adventurous and warn the timid with outrageous titles, which accurately predict outrageousness within. Even Cowgirls Get the Blues, Still Life with Woodpecker, Half Asleep in Frog Pajamas, Skinny Legs and All these are not your usual well-behaved titles of popular novels. You won't see Robbins calling his books The Firm or The Notebook. But for sheer mouthful of chewy syllables, you can't beat the title of Robbins's latest novel

    Tom Robbins Still Life With Woodpecker Bibliographical Excerpts. (Robbins, Tom (1980) Still Life With Woodpecker. Bantom New York p. 19)
    http://www.serpentfd.org/a/robbins1980.html
    Tom Robbins Still Life With Woodpecker: Bibliographical Excerpts ""Neoteny" is "remaining young, " and it may be ironic that it is so little known, because human evolution has been dominated by it. Humans have evolved to their relatively high state by retaining the immature characteristics of their ancestors. Humans are the most advanced of mammals although a case could be made for the dolphins because they seldom grow up. Behavioral traits such as curiosity about the world, flexibility of response, and playfulness are common to practically all young mammals but are usually rapidly lost with the onset of maturity in all but humans. Humanity has advanced, when it has advanced, not because it has been sober, responsible, and cautious, but because it has been playful, rebellious, and immature.

    The AFTRLife (an acronym for alt.fan.tom-robbins) is a website consider it an hom(ep)age dedicated to Tom Robbins , the cosmic/comic American author. Tom's seven novels embrace a Crazy Wisdom worldview and are written in a complex metaphorical style that is grounded in transcendent nitty-gritty reality. As Tom has pointed out; his novels have plot but don't depend on plot. All in all (is there any other way?) his novels are a real good read. Come on in and play on the mood swings, do a dervish on the tilt-a-whirl and practice Zen acrobatics on the monkey bars. All suggestions for links or info to include are welcome, and, of course, credit will be given where credit is due. Enjoy! Dale Kirby editor. Tom Robbins novels are showing up in strange places. In the movie, "50 First Dates", the Drew Barrymore character is shown reading Still Life with Woodpecker . In "Secret Window"
