The Water-Method Man
The Water-Method Man | John Irving
5 posts | 20 read | 1 reading | 7 to read
Fred 'Bogus' Trumper is a wayward knight-errant in the battle of the sexes and the pursuit of happiness. He also happens to have a complaint more serious than Portnoy's. Yet he stubbornly clings to the notion that he'll make something of his life, and is about to commit himself to a second marriage that bears remarkable resemblance to his first.The Water-Method Man is a work of cosummate artistry and comic invention, bizarre imagery and sharp social and psychological observation.

The #Roll100 Challenge this year has really helped me get to some of those SFF books that have been long on my TBR! 👍🚀

I‘ve never read any Susan Orleans and this book feels like a good entry point . 👍📚

26 TO BE DECIDED John Irving title
I‘m torn between rereading or working toward completing his body of work and picking something I‘ve not yet read, like the tagged. 👍❓

ImperfectCJ My family listened to The Library Book on our drive up to LA to tour the library. I liked the book better than the rest of the family, but we all loved the tour. 1mo
Ruthiella @ImperfectCJ That‘s a good idea to do a little field trip to LA after reading it. 😃 1mo
MatchlessMarie The Library Book is on my 10BeforeTheEnd list. I‘ve also not read any others by her. 1mo
Ruthiella @MatchlessMarie I hope we both like it! I‘ve only heard good things but I rarely read nonfiction. 1mo
PuddleJumper Looks great! 1mo

Me, on p49: “If there is one more bizarre breast comment or flippant rape joke, I‘m out.”

I'm three chapters in and not sure how I feel about this book so far. I've only read one other Irving book, The Cider House Rules, which I loved but which was very different.

Spazz, however, seems quite enamored with it.
