... what I would really like to know is whatever happened to Tom DeHaven.
He wrote a brilliant novel before or around the turn of the 1980s, "Freaks Amore", that was very much in the Robbins vein, then seemed to fade into total obscurity. An author by the same name, perhaps the same person, now seems known for wild young adult fiction, but I can find no connection to his 20+ year old novel. Web searches seems to turn up mostly Italian porn (?!), nothing at all about a novel involving mass mutations, telepathy, microwave ovens, hallucinogenic fish eggs, space travel, and, yes, pornographic employment involving all of the above.
