Journey through four generations, across two continents with the astonishing family of T. S. Garp—the famous bastard son of a belligerent mother— who loves, lusts, labors, and triumphs in a world of assassins, wrestlers, rapists, feminist fanatics, transsexual football players, tantalizing teen-age babysitters, adoring children, and a wayward wife.
His life is comic, tragic, violent, tender.
His world is totally outrageous.
And as real as your own.
