Book Reviews of The World According to Garp
Book Review: 'Acording to Garp' fails to please
Summary: 2 Stars
When I first opened this book, I expected to find a rich novel full of lessons and all that trash. But, by page 100, I found myself reading anecdotes of perverseness, like in other Irving works such as 'A Widow for One Year'. I think that it is under-estimated and very wrong. It has no good things to get from it. It is only there, for people to read and react. Action. Reaction.
