The World According To Garp

Description for THE WORLD ACCORDING TO GARP by John Irving:

Millions have entered Garp's world . . . And loved it!

Journey through four generations, across two continents with the astonishing family of T.S. Garp -- the famous bastard son of a belligerent mother -- who loves, lusts, labors, and triumphs in a world of assassins, wrestlers, rapists, feminist fanatics, transsexual football players, tantalizing teen-age babysitters, adoring children, and a wayward wife.

His life is comic, tragic, violent, tender. His world is totally outrageous. And as real as your own.
