World According to Garp
by John Irving
20th ANNIVERSARY EDITIONwith a new Afterword from the authorThe New York Times bestsellerThis is the life and times of T. S. Garp, the bastard son of Jenny Fields--a feminist leader ahead of her times. 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."
The Hotel New Hampshire
by John Irving
"The first of my father's illusions was that bears could survive the life lived by human beings, and the second was that human beings could survive a life led in hotels." So says John Berry, son of a hapless dreamer, brother to a cadre of eccentric siblings, and chronicler of the lives lived, the loves experienced, the deaths met, and the myriad strange and wonderful times encountered by the family Berry. Hoteliers, pet-bear owners, friends of Freud (the animal trainer and vaudevillian, that is), and playthings of mad fate, they "dream on" in a funny, sad, outrageous, and moving novel.

Burgess, Anthony
U.S.A.: Avon, 1981. 1st. Printing. Mass Market Paperback. Good/No Jacket as Issued. Burgess's ambitious study of 20th-century history centers on the stormy relationship between an effete, popular novelist and a Faustian priest.Kenneth Toomey, an 81-year-old homosexual author of plays, novels, and stories, recounts a convoluted personal history of the 20th century, with particular emphasis on the life of his friend and relative, Don Carlo Campanati. Toomey is an iconoclastic, embittered old man who finally gains dubious celebrity and notoriety late in life. Campanati, on the other hand, is a man of God. He is also a subtle negotiator, who eventually becomes the controversial Pope Gregory XVII, architect of a church revolution, and a candidate for sainthood. The two characters share sympathies, genius, and a deep... 12mo - over 6¾" - 7¾" tall. ( more information)
