Still Life With Woodpecker was one of my first husband's favorites. He was (possibly still is) a fan of Hunter S Thompson, too. I think I might have read that book way back when but I don't remember anything about it. But now my curiosity is piqued so I'll add the book you suggested to my TBR list.
Your Saturdays discussing books sound amazing. Now I'm very curious about what Dan has done in the last 20+ years. I hope it's something where he can use his bravery and sense of justice.
I have that same feeling about books I loved once upon a time. What if I go back and find that it's not as wonderful as I remember? I suppose the book might look back at me and say, "Gee, you didn't turn out how I expected either." haha
I would recommend Jitterbug Perfume over Still Life with Woodpecker, but since it's shown up in your life twice now, maybe the universe is trying to tell you something? (At least that's what Tom Robbins would likely say.)
Ah I love these little peeks into the people that were part of a life once! It reminds me that even seemingly insignificant things can still make an impact on others. Hope Dan is doing well.
I hadn't thought of Dan in ages. I didn't even intend to write about him here-I was going to write about Tom Robbins but once I started writing, Dan just came rushing forward, and it knew it was his story I needed to tell. Thanks for reading!
