JITTERBUG PERFUME by Tom Robbins

 This is one of my trade paperbacks that I had never read. I don't know why I put it off because I really loved the book. There was a beautiful turn of the phrase on nearly every page. Just a wild and crazy tale about Evolution, Sex, History, beets, the perfect taco, and Perfume. This book was truly something different. 

The plot in a nutshel:

"The book follows two interweaving storylines, one in Ancient Eurasia and one in the present day. The story connects dueling perfumers in Seattle, Paris and New Orleans to a bottle of incomparable perfume created by two unlikely but defiant lovers of the past who seek immortality."
