5.0 out of 5 stars In One Person by John Irving April 13 2013
Format:Hardcover|Amazon Verified Purchase
Of course I love John Irving and every one of his novels so far. This may not be his best, but it is a great story and very well told by a fantastic writer. Well worth reading!

3.0 out of 5 stars Mediocre April 2 2013
By Holden
Format:Hardcover
It is a somewhat satisfying read, although I found it preachy and much of the Shakespeare references of little use to the plot. I understand Mr. Irving was drawing some parallels for the reader as well as taking some artistic license as he wrote in the first person, but it was all too much for my taste and lessened the quality of the narrative. As well, he was somewhat repetitive and his punctuation was, at least for a punctuation nitpicker like me, detrimental to the writing. His dialogue was near-perfect, but his first-person accounts long-winded at times.

I agree with his message, or what I assume to be his message of tolerance and acceptance. However, unlike many of his other novels, I took nothing "with" me from this one. I've kept all of his other books on my shelves; some for decades. This one I will pass onto someone else.

5.0 out of 5 stars In One Person Dec 19 2012
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
This book gives the reader a better understanding of how one young man grows to understanding his sexuality. Irving is just such an outstanding writer that there's really no comparison out there.
I loved this book.
