Reader reviews for Jitterbug Perfume
Review summary
Reviewers largely celebrate Jitterbug Perfume for Tom Robbins's exuberant, synesthetic prose and its riot of imagery, scent, and humor. They describe a sensual, freewheeling narrative whose subplots drift before finally aligning, with characters serving the language more than the plot. Many report underlining quotable lines and ranking it among their favorites, while a minority find the analogies scattershot or the style indulgent. Overall, it is regarded as an imaginative, absurdist work that rewards readers willing to savor its meandering design.
