- Description or summary of the audiobook: 'John Irving, it is abundantly clear, is a true artist.'-Los Angeles Times Fred 'Bogus' Trumper has troubles. A divorced, broke graduate student of Old Norse in 1970s New York, Trumper is a wayward knight-errant in the battle of the sexes and the pursuit of happiness: His ex-wife has moved in with his childhood best friend, his life is the subject of a tell-all movie, and his chronic urinary tract infection requires surgery. Trumper is determined to change. There's only one problem: it seems the harder he tries to alter his adolescent ways, the more he is drawn to repeating the mistakes of the past. . . . Written when Irving was twenty-nine, Trumper's tale of woe is told with all the wit and humor that would become Irving's trademark. 'Three or four times as funny as most novels.'-The New Yorker Praise for The Water-Method Man 'Friendship, marriage, and family are his primary themes, but at that blundering level of life where mishap and folly-something close to joyful malice-perpetually intrude and distrupt, often fatally. Life, in [John] Irving's fiction, is always under siege. Harm and disarray are daily fare, as if the course of love could not run true. . . . Irving's multiple manner . . . his will to come at the world from different directions, is one of the outstandint traits of The World According to Garp, but this remarkable flair for . . . stories inside stories . . . isalready handled with mastery . . . and with a freedom almost wanton in The Water-Method Man [which is Garp's predecessor by six years].'-Terrence Des Pres'Brutal reality and hallucination, comedy and pathos. A rich, unified tapestry.'-Time
