I love Tom Robbins, but I don't consider Still Life with Woodpecker to be among his best work. It was a very entertaining read, but I didn't find myself at all invested in any of the characters, and I found that Robbins actually was ironically preachy at certain points (I say "ironically" because he is mainly preaching against those who preach). In works like Jitterbug Perfume, Robbins allows himself to simply be a writer and a storyteller, which he does beautifully! In Still Life, I think perhaps he put a little too much effort into somewhat self-indulgent commentary that actually detracted from the novel as a whole. There are, of course, brilliant metaphors and quotable gems scattered throughout the pages that make this a worthwhile read.

As is the trend for me and classic novels, it took me awhile to get through. But I'm glad I read it and overall really enjoyed it.

Many of my students read this in 7th-grade and want to read it again in 8th. As a high school sophomore(?), my best friend read it for a class, so I did, too. We made fun of the characters' names (she used to make a gurgly sound and say "Soda Pop") but we secretly loved it. I still love it on my students' behalf. Film adaptation was recently reissued with extras.

Lacey lent this to me while I was in her apartment.
I read this with my oldest son and it really kept him and myself entertained. I love the way the author addresses the reader like an old friend. It is a fun read.

I'm not sure if we can use profanity on these reviews. Which is too bad. Because the only way to describe this book involves the words 'mind' and another which means sexual penetration.
Best book on the topic.

I loved this book. I don't think that she has written one book that I did not like to read. I think Lothaire's book is next so I am excited to read that one apparently his girl can be more evil then him so it should be a good one.
The peculiarities of the last fifteen to twenty or so years means that this novel seems simultaneously very fresh, and very dated. It seems more and more likely that the world will become increasinly sinocentric over the coming years, but I'm not certain that it would—or could—happen in the way McHugh describes here. At least not in political terms—culturally, I think this is a great snapshot of how two very disparate cultures, Chinese and American, could mingle together. I thought there were some very nice touches which added depth to the narrative, such as the awkwardness of navigating the vagaries of Chinese instead of American etiquette and vice versa; McHugh also layers in one or two things casually (metabolic and genetic therapy, catastrophic climate change) which make it clear just how different a place this future is. Her world-building is really quite strong. That said, I don't think that the interludes from other characters—fliers, a young Chinese-born woman, some colonists on Mars—added much to the book. They certainly expanded our knowledge of the world in which the characters were living, but I don't think those chapters added anything to the story itself. It was space she could have devoted much more to developing Zhang's character, because while I found him an interesting and mostly sympathetic protagonist, I never found him truly engaging—kind of a reflection of the book as a whole, I think.
