skinny legs and all: Book by Tom Robbins First UK Publication
£2.99
Skinny Legs and All is a 1990 postmodern novel by Tom Robbins. It follows multiple loosely connected characters—an artist, a welder, a waitress, and symbolic “talking objects”—whose stories explore themes of art, religion, politics, illusion, and human perception.
The novel is known for its surreal humour, philosophical digressions, and satirical take on modern society, often blending mythic imagery with contemporary settings (including a Middle Eastern restaurant near the United Nations).
