Oh I wish I’d known the main characters were 19. I’ve got as much in common with a 19 year old as I do an ostrich.

Sometimes they’re better when I reread them as an adult. Sometimes they’re worse. And sometimes they’re so vastly different as to seem another book than the one beloved by a 20 year old.

Reading this as an adult - as a parent - is murder. I don’t think Garp made me cry before.

That part about the Christian marriage counseling and simultaneous orgasms...this book makes a strong argument for being the best book ever written.

When I’m not reading him I have a sense of John Irving’s weirdness, but I tend to feel I’ve exaggerated it in my mind. Hahahahhahahaa.
