A review by natashamuse
The World According to Garp by John Irving

Coming across this book years after I read it reminds me how much I used to love Irving. I think I read like 4 or 5 of his books in less than 2 years (a lot for one author, for me.) and then...? I don’t know. I guess the winds of fate shifted and sent me to authors. Wouldn’t mind delving deeper into his back catalogue someday though.

Anyway, I remember the trans character was portrayed sympathetically, though I’d probably cringe at her scenes were I to read it again.
And... everything else I might remember had been supplanted by Robin Williams doing his thing in the movie.
