The World According to Garp

Read The World According to Garp by John Irving ( )
I read this book for the first time when I was 12. Nine years later, I read it for the fourth time, but first time in English. And it’s gotten even better year after year, as I created a vision of the World According to Lexane, as I experienced more and more of what life is, for a girl, for a human being, for a cynical person. This book was my user’s manual to life. And it has grown more and more important at every reading. I sincerely hope that one day, when I’m old and withered and have no more illusions, I’ll read this book one last time and understand it in full. Then I’ll know that I spent a life worth living.
