The World According to Garp
John Irving
This is the life and times of T. S. Garp, the bastard son of Jenny Fields, a feminist leader ahead of her time. This is the life and death of a famous mother and her almost-famous son; theirs is a world of sexual extremes, even of sexual assassinations. It is a novel rich with lunacy and sorrow, yet the dark, violent events of the story do not undermine a comedy both ribald and robust. In more than thirty languages, in more than forty countries-with more than ten million copies in print-this novel provides almost cheerful, even hilarious evidence of its famous last line: "In the world according to Garp, we are all terminal cases."Binding Type: PaperbackAuthor: John IrvingPublisher: Ballantine BooksPublished: 06/23/1997ISBN: 9780345418012Pages: 464Weight: 0.80lbsSize: 8.32h x 5.56w x 0.95dAccelerated Reader Quiz #/Name: 121263 / World According to GarpReading Level: 6.7 / Interest Level: Upper Grade / Point Value: 33
