Review
"This wonderful novel is an epic, moving survey of 70 years of sexual revolution" (The Times)
"Deeply enjoyable... a comic celebration of polymorphous perversity, and of literature" (Guardian)
"Irving has rarely written with the gorgeous poise and control he musters here" (Financial Times)
"In One Person gives a lot. It's funny, as you would expect. It's risky in what it exposes. Tolerance, in a John Irving novel is not about anything goes; it's what happens when we face our own desires honestly, whether we act on them or not" (Jeanette Winterson)
"A brave and hugely affecting depiction of how in one life (sexual and otherwise) we contain multitudes" (Elle)
Book Description
Spanning fifty years, In One Person is an breathtaking examination of sexual identity
