The Water-Method Man
The Water-Method Man | John Irving
Fred 'Bogus' Trumper is a wayward knight-errant in the battle of the sexes and the pursuit of happiness. He also happens to have a complaint more serious than Portnoy's. Yet he stubbornly clings to the notion that he'll make something of his life, and is about to commit himself to a second marriage that bears remarkable resemblance to his first.The Water-Method Man is a work of cosummate artistry and comic invention, bizarre imagery and sharp social and psychological observation.

Me, on p49: “If there is one more bizarre breast comment or flippant rape joke, I‘m out.”
Me, on p50: “I‘m out.”

I'm three chapters in and not sure how I feel about this book so far. I've only read one other Irving book, The Cider House Rules, which I loved but which was very different.

Spazz, however, seems quite enamored with it.
