âBursts with energy . . . Those who cherish [Robbinsâs] gift for metaphor, simile, and verbal riffs will revel in their plentitude here.ââEntertainment Weekly
Imagine there are American MIAs who chose to remain missing after the Vietnam War. Imagine a family in which four generations of strong, alluring women share a mysterious connection to an outlandish figure from Japanese folklore. Imagine them as part of a novel that only Tom Robbins could createâa magically crafted work as timeless as myth.
But no matter how hard you try, youâll never imagine what youâll find inside: a tilt-a-whirl of identity, masquerade, and disguise that dares to pull off âthe false mustache of the worldâ and reveal the even greater mystery underneath. For neither the mists of Laos nor the Bangkok smog, neither the overcast of Seattle nor the fog of San Francisco, neither the murk of the intelligence community nor the mummery of the circus can obscure the pure linguistic phosphor that illuminates every page of Villa Incognito.
