My favourite book ever!

This has everything you could possibly want from a novel. It also made me see beetroot in an entirely different light. I urge anyone who hasnt done so to read this - it may change your life!

Boof!

At its most basic, this book is a celebration of the sense of smell, and all the heart memories attached to scent. It is also a joyous romp, encompassing the rampant eroticism of a greek god suffering the blues, the surprising secret ingredient of the most popular perfume in the world, and the quest for eternal youth through proper breathing techniques and long, hot baths. A host of some of the most unforgettable entities ever assembled in fiction all find their seemingly different agendas coalescing around a mutual search for personal joy. The forward momentum of the story is as unflagging as a heartbeat and carries the reader along with it, effortlessly. Robbins technique of scattering surprising insights like so many sparkling jewels provide the only pause to the pace of the story as the reader is tempted to stop...and think...and learn a little bit more about themselves and what they most desire. This book was an altogether life-enhancing experience. It is also an excellent guidebook for discovering, or, more to the point, re-discovering the capacity for passion.

My bible

If youve started to take life to seriously, to the point that you might even think yourself mortal, this book is the antedote. Wrapped up in all the fizzing metaphors, sexy romps, historical beetroots and throwaway gags, youll find Buddhism with a sense of humour, spirituality with human warmth and everything you need to inspire you once conventional religion proves insufficient. And its a good story too.
