-- Abraham Verghese
""In One Person" is a novel that makes you proud to be human. It is a book that not only accepts but also loves our differences. From the beginning of his career, Irving has always cherished our peculiarities--in a fierce, not a saccharine, way. Now he has extended his sympathies--and ours--still further into areas that even the misfits eschew. Anthropologists say that the interstitial--whatever lies between two familiar opposites--is usually declared either taboo or sacred. John Irving in this magnificent novel--his best and most passionate since "The World According to Garp"--has sacralized what lies between polarizing genders and orientations. And have I mentioned it is also a gripping page-turner and a beautifully constructed work of art?"
-- Edmund White
"His most daringly political, sexually transgressive, and moving novel in well over a decade."--"Vanity Fair"
"A brave and affecting depiction of how in one life (sexual and otherwise) we contain multitudes."--"Elle"
"It is impossible to imagine the American - or international - literary landscape without John Irving....He has sold tens of millions of copies of his books, books that have earned descriptions like "epic" and "extraordinary" and "controversial" and "sexually brave". And yet, unlike so many writers in the contemporary canon, he manages to write books that are both critically acclaimed and beloved for their sheer readability. He is as close as one gets to a contemporary Dickens in the scope of his celebrity and the level of his achievement." "--Time"
"Gorgeous...Irving remains a master builder when it comes to constructing an epic plot filled with satisfying twists." -"Entertainment Weekly"""
""In One Person" is a rich and absorbing book, even beautiful."--"Esquire"
"Cause for excitement: John Irving's "In One Person", his most daringly political, sexually transgressive, and moving novel in well over a decade, follows the life of charming Billy, an ambitious, bisexual writer as he pursues his desires...Theatrical, generous, sad."--"Vanity Fair"
"[In One Person] is a staggeringly ambitious work, and its success reaffirms Irving's place among our greatest working novelists." --"BookPage" (Fiction Top Pick, May 2012)
"Few writers can craft misfits with the tenderness of Irving, and this tragicomic portrait of a bisexual man is a masterpiece of sympathy and imagination."--"Departures"
