    About this audiobook

    A masterpiece from one of the great contemporary American writers.

    Anniversary edition with a new afterword from the author.

    A worldwide best seller since its publication, Irving's classic is filled with stories inside stories about the life and times of T. S. Garp, struggling writer and illegitimate son of Jenny Fields—an unlikely feminist heroine ahead of her time.

    Beautifully written, The World According to Garp is a powerfully compelling and compassionate coming-of-age novel that established John Irving as one of the most imaginative writers of his generation.
