The World According to Garp: A Novel (Ballantine Reader's Circle)

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 countriesâ€“with more than ten million copies in printâ€“this novel provides almost cheerful, even hilarious evidence of its famous last line: â€œIn the world according to Garp, we are all terminal cases.â€
