The World According To Garp pdf epub mobi txt 电子书 下载 2024
The World According to Garp is a comic and compassionate coming-of-age novel that established John Irving as one of the most imaginative writers of his generation. A worldwide bestseller since its publication in 1978, Irving's classic is filled with stories inside stories about the life and times of T. S. Garp, novelist and bastard son of Jenny Fields--a feminist leader ahead of her time. Beyond that, The World According to Garp virtually defies synopsis.
----"Nothing in contemporary fiction matches it," said critic Terrence Des Pres. "Irving's blend of gravity and play is unique, audacious, almost blasphemous. . . . Friendship, marriage and family are his primary themes, but at that blundering level of life where mishap and folly--something close to joyful malice--perpetually intrude and disrupt, often fatally. Life, in Irving's fiction, is always under siege." Time magazine commented: "Irving's popularity is not hard to understand. His world is really the world according to nearly everyone."
----This Modern Library edition includes a new Introduction by the author.
The Modern Library has played a significant role in American cultural life for the better part of a century. The series was founded in 1917 by the publishers Boni and Liveright and eight years later acquired by Bennett Cerf and Donald Klopfer. It provided the foundation for their next publishing venture, Random House. The Modern Library has been a staple of the American book trade, providing readers with affordable hardbound editons of impor-tant works of literature and thought. For the Modern Library's seventy-fifth anniversary, Random House redesigned the series, restoringas its emblem the running torchbearer created by Lucian Bernhard in 1925 and refurbishing jackets, bindings, and type, as well as inaugurating a new program of selecting titles. The Modern Library continues to provide the world's best books, at the best prices.
这是看过的第二本Irving的小说,可能是第一本《新罕布什尔旅馆》过于精彩了,以至于生怕其他的书比不上而会失望,就迟迟没有再拿起过他的书。不过虽然不失望但是确实没有Hotel好看,这本写于Hotel之前,是Irving的第四部小说。感觉上好像Iriving已经渐入佳境,开始享受作为一个作家可以随意挥洒The world according to Irving里各色人等的命运,执掌生死。所以可能挥洒的有点儿过于随意了,但是在紧跟着的下一部小说Hotel里虽然也是各种意想不到,但是显然圆滑老练多了。这两本小说有很多相似的地方,很多共同的元素,不知道这些元素是不是会在他所有的小说里出现,熊,妓女,维也纳的妓女。
