<b>From the author of <i>A Prayer for Owen Meany </i>and <i>The World According to Garp</i> comes his most daringly political, sexually transgressive, and moving novel in well over a decade (<i>Vanity Fair</i>).</b> <p/>A <i>New York Times</i> bestselling novel of desire, secrecy, and sexual identity, <i>In One Person</i> is a story of unfulfilled love--tormented, funny, and affecting--and an impassioned embrace of our sexual differences. Billy, the bisexual narrator and main character of <i>In One Person</i>, tells the tragicomic story (lasting more than half a century) of his life as a sexual suspect, a phrase first used by John Irving in 1978 in his landmark novel of terminal cases, <i>The World According to Garp</i>. <p/> <i>In One Person</i> is a poignant tribute to Billy's friends and lovers--a theatrical cast of characters who defy category and convention. Not least, <i>In One Person</i> is an intimate and unforgettable portrait of the solitariness of a bisexual man who is dedicated to making himself worthwhile.<br><br><b>Author:</b> John Irving<br><b>Publisher:</b> Simon & Schuster<br><b>Published:</b> 01/29/2013<br><b>Pages:</b> 448<br><b>Binding Type:</b> Paperback<br><b>Weight:</b> 1.00lbs<br><b>Size:</b> 8.30h x 5.50w x 1.10d<br><b>ISBN:</b> 9781451664133<br><br><b>Review Citation(s): </b><br><i>New York Times Book Review</i> 02/24/2013 pg. 24
