|comment= I would definitely like this. I particularly like the idea of being tricked into identifying with larger than life characters. I know what you mean about Irving and sex, but for some reason, it never bothers me with him when it does with other people.

|comment= Irving: I really liked Garp, and Hotel New Hampshire a lot, but I read them in my late teens. I don't re-read now because I don't want to shatter the illusion; but every one I read since was just annoyingly like that, authorial descriptions objectifying women as sexual objects are particularly irritating. Pendulous breasts, my arse.
