   http://www.bookreporter.com/authors/au-irving-john.asp
   
   Extractions: His novel, A SON OF THE CIRCUS (1995), was arguably his most different and difficult. Irving's least "American" novel, A SON OF THE CIRCUS deals with issues of identity. Ever present, though, are many of John Irving's favorite (and unusual) motifs and themes - dwarfs, prostitutes, lust, moral offense, faith. John Irving fans will once again enjoy his amusing characters and their outrageous pursuits.

   Extractions: John Irving Garp found that he could forget her; lust, as his mother called it, was tricky that way. And time, he discovered had softened his dislike of Wanga's mayonnaise-jar lip; suddenly, he liked it. And so he had her , twice, and as he would learn all his life, nearly everything seems a letdown after a writer has finished writing something. from The World According to Garp John Irving , b. Exeter, N.H., Mar. 2, 1942, is an author whose sprawling fourth novel, The World According to Garp (1978; film, 1982), earned him a huge following and a National Book Award nomination. The story of an eccentric feminist and her writer son, it displays the same delight in language and narrative exuberance that characterized his previous novels, Setting Free the Bears The Water Method Man (1972) and The 158-Pound Marriage The Hotel New Hampshire (1981; film, 1984) is, like Garp, a family saga. The Cider House Rules (1985) is ranked by many as Irving's best novel. A Prayer for Owen Meany was published in 1989.

    http://www.online-literature.com/irving/geoffrey_crayon/29/
    
    Extractions: However little, therefore, the character may have suited in the first instance, it has gradually adapted itself to the nation, or rather they have adapted themselves to each other; and a stranger who wishes to study English peculiarities may gather much valuable information from the innumerable portraits of John Bull as exhibited in the windows of the caricature-shops. Still, however, he is one of those fertile humorists that are continually throwing out new portraits and presenting different aspects from different points of view; and, often as he has been described, I cannot resist the temptation to give a slight sketch of him such as he has met my eye. John Bull, to all appearance, is a plain, downright, matter-of-fact fellow, with much less of poetry about him than rich prose. There is little of romance in his nature, but a vast deal of strong natural feeling. He excels in humor more than in wit; is jolly rather than gay; melancholy rather than morose; can easily be moved to a sudden tear or surprised into a broad laugh; but he loathes sentiment and has no turn for light pleasantry. He is a boon companion, if you allow him in to have his humor and to talk about himself; and he will stand by a friend in a quarrel with life and purse, however soundly he may be cudgelled.

    Extractions: Man muss auf eine Geschichte zugehen wie auf einen Gegner." John Irving John Irving wurde 1942 in Exeter, New Hampshire, USA geboren. Er lebt heute in Vermont und Toronto. Irving ist verheiratet und hat drei Söhne; der jüngste, Everett, ist mit seinen 5 Jahren allerdings noch zu klein zum Ringen, das nicht nur im autobographischen Buch, Die imaginäre Freundin , sondern auch in vielen von Irvings frühen Romanen (z.B. in Eine Mittelgewichtsehe ) eines der Themen und Bilder ist, mit denen der Autor die Welt in den Griff bekommt. "In der Welt der Literatur hat John Irving für das Ringen getan, was Franz Kafka für Insekten, Henry Miller für Sex und James Joyce für Dublin getan haben." schrieb der Rolling Stone, Hamburg. Mit 19 wusste der Sohn eines Professors für russische Geschichte und einer Krankenschwester genau, was er wollte: Ringen und Romane schreiben. Bis zum Durchbruch von Garp verkaufte Irving Erdnüsse bei Football-Spielen, kellnerte, machte Österreich mit seinem Motorrad unsicher und trainierte an amerikanischen Universitäten Ringermannschaften und künftige Schriftsteller. Mit seinem ältesten Sohn Brendan schloss er eine 100-Dollar-Wette ab, dass er ihn an seinem 40. Geburtstag noch auf die Matte bringen könne. Gesiegt hat der Sohn, doch die Romane des Vaters sind weiterhin umwerfend lang und haben uns von der ersten bis zur allerletzten Seite, wie mit einem Doppelnelson, fest im Griff.

18. Authologies: John Irving
    Présentation biographique et critique.  
    http://authologies.free.fr/irving.htm
    
    Extractions: John Irving naît le 2 mars 1942 en Nouvelle Angleterre. Il vit chez sa grand-mère à Exeter, dans le New Hampshire, jusqu'à l'âge de 7 ans où il emménage chez son beau-père. Il n'a en effet pas connu son père (comme Garp, comme Homer Wells…) et lorsqu'il parle de "son père" dans ses mémoires, il s'agit du mari de sa mère, qui enseignait l'histoire russe dans une école privée à Exeter. C'est là qu'Irving fera ses études secondaires; il précisera plus tard à ce sujet: «Dire que j'avais du mal à suivre relèverait de la litote». John Irving souffrait de dyslexie et donc d'une très mauvaise orthographe. Passionné de lutte, il choisit son université surtout en fonction de son équipe et de son entraîneur dans ce sport. Il fait des études médiocres (il passait beaucoup trop de temps à lire) mais il est cependant admis à suivre un cours de "création littéraire". C'est la naissance de Colin, en mars 1965, qui évite à John Irving de partir au Vietnam - mais ne l'empêchera pas de continuer son sport préféré, la lutte. Mais, ajoute-t-il: " …ma condition d'homme marié, de père, et mon retour à la lutte me tinrent à l'écart des deux expériences les plus séduisantes qui aient marqué les années soixante: le sexe et la drogue.". On ne s'étonnera donc pas de trouver peu de sexe et peu de drogue dans la plupart de ses romans: le Docteur Larch, dans

    Extractions: the works of John Irving Irving News Irving Books Irving Websites Irving Discussion Forum I created this website several years ago and regretfully have not updated it much, as I've spent most of my spare time in the last few years growing and managing my company, Knowledge Solutions , and its online forensic science resources. However, I figured it was about time that I either update these pages, or take them down completely. The discussion forum used to generate a lot of traffic - both insightful and ludicrous comments - back when it was hosted on the old software. Since moving to WebX, not many people have found it - mainly because I didn't make the new link very accessible. Anyway, in spite of my low profile the last few years in the John Irving reading community, I continue to really enjoy his books. I ordered Widow for One Year right away when it came out, and enjoyed it much more than I did
