Title: Either Tom's lost his touch, or I've grown up.
Product review: I was a devoted Robbins fan beginning back in the late '70s but was unable to make it more than a fifth of the way through this book. I've got an undying nostalgic affection for Tom and his over-the-top writing style, but he seems to have become overly self-conscious and precious about it. Or it could be the fact that I'm 40 years old and stopped smoking pot years ago . . . I tried very hard to like this book, but found the characters unreachable and the prose ultimately unreadable.
