Best author ever, without exception. Met mild fame when his second book "Even Cowgirls Get The Blues" was made into a movie, but really didn't care. His books are seen as more a form of poetry than fiction by some, and not dependant on his twisted but brilliant plots. His writing style is simultaneously intellectual and immature, high-brow and low-brow, snobby and perfectly willing to dabble in all our human flaws.
Tom Robbins is depressing to read, because I'll never be able to write like that.

Jun 14 Word of the Day
Referring to women who are sexually or romantically attracted to other women. Applies to both lesbians and bisexual women, as it is only the same-sex attraction that matters, not any other attractions the women may have.

Originates from the Greek poet Sappho, a bisexual woman from the Isle of Lesbos, from which we get the term lesbian.
The sapphic women greatly enjoyed each others company.

A breath of fresh air after putting his book down. A very spiritual and intellectual American author. Writes engaging and magical stories centered around spirituality, individuality, politics, sex, drugs, art, etc. An outspoken individual in the sense of getting his point across through his unique metaphorical writing prose.
Tom Robbins studied eastern philosophy in college.
Tom Robbins currently resides in Seattle, WA.
Tom Robbins is a very knowledgable being on the topic of life and death.

hippy author of the seventies and eighties known for extremely gratuitously blasphemous books that are completely out of touch with reality (i.e. every girl in the world is a horny lesbian slash bisexual)-which isn't necessarily a bad thing
Tom Robbins wrote Another Roadside Attraction (I highly recommend it)
