Such an incredible novel! This makes me want to reread it!

I read a lot of John Irving in the 90s and then drifted away from him for quite a while. Since then I've tried getting through a couple of his later novels with mixed results. I just now gave up on The Last Chairlift. It hurt to do so, but life is short and that book was driving me batshit. Maybe it's time for another re-reading of Owen Meany or The Cider House Rules to remind me of how much I loved this author back then.
