Yeah. It's a bit of weird one - and I'm not a huge consumer of fiction so I don't have a huge back catalogue to compare it to - but I like it, it makes me laugh.

Final note before I must go and eat - I'm confident that Robbins has had some sort of contact with Buddhism in the form of zen and/or tantra. I suspect I read that somewhere, but I'm drawing a blank right now.
