Jitterbug Perfume is an epic.Which is to say, it begins in the forests of ancient Bohemia and doesnt conclude until nine oclock tonight (Paris time).It is a saga, as well. A saga must have a hero, and the hero of this one is a janitor with a missing bottle.The bottle is blue, very, very old, and embossed with the image of a goat-horned god. If the liquid in the bottle actually is the secret essence of the universe, as some folks seem to think, it had better be discovered soon because it is leaking and there is only a drop or two left.
Small volume ships promptly in a clasp envelope with the book wrapped in both craft paper and multiple layers of bubble wrap.
