Publisher's Summary

Imagine this: When the stock market crashes on the Thursday before Easter, you, an ambitious broker, not overly successful or ethical, know you're facing the Weekend from Hell. With only 72 hours to scheme and scramble your way out of this nightmare, you find yourself confronted with a 300-pound psychic, a tattooed stranger, African rituals, legendary amphibians, outer space, and your own sexuality. Half Asleep in Frog Pajamas, the highly praised novel from Tom Robbins, places the listener at the center of a wildly psychotic journey. When it is over, will you - and the world - be wiser, sadder, better in some way? Or merely possessed of a complete understanding of the surprisingly serious phrase, "half asleep in frog pajamas?"

What the critics say

"Trying to describe a Tom Robbins novel by summarizing its plot is like pointing to a snowflake and asking someone to grasp the concept of downhill skiing." (The Los Angeles Times)

A Great Read!

The author's accent made the audiobook seem all the more foreign, just an excellent listen.

Highly recommend

I adore Tom Robbins. I read "Still life with Woodpecker"in high school and can't get enough Robbins since. This book is a masterpoece and was read masterfully. a great mix of humor, mystery, sex, comedy and whimsy. I can't wait to listen again. #Audible1

Painful

Highly recommended by family, but painfully taps the life out of my soul. Pages dedicated to describing rain…get to the point. Too flowery, over- stuffed and over written for no one’s benefit. Kills and wastes a persons life…time is precious.
