Ein Platz für Hot Dogs. Another Roadside Attraction.

Another roadside attraction

Laura Mauler

Maybe I was just tired of Tom Robbin's writing pattern (see my review of Still Life with Woodpecker) but this book was so boring and predictable. Couldn't finish it, wish I hadn't started it.

Another Roadside Attraction

Having read later Robbins' novels first, this book's story felt less fully formed. That being said, his writing is still brilliant and lyrical. I enjoyed the yarn spun by the narrator and the rambling monologues of the characters. Early Tom Robbins still beats many seasoned authors.

What if the Second Coming didn't quite come off as advertised? What if "the Corpse" on display in that funky roadside zoo is really who they say it is--what does that portent for the future of western civilization? And what if a young clairvoyant named Amanda reestablishes the flea circus as popular entertainment and fertility worship as the principal religious form of our high-tech age? Another Roadside Attraction answers those questions and a lot more. It tells us, for example, what the sixties were truly all about, not by reporting on the psychedelic decade but by recreating it, from the inside out. In the process, this stunningly original seriocomic thriller eating a literary hotdog and eroding the borders of the mind. From the Trade Paperback edition.
