Product Information
"His most daringly political, sexually transgressive, and moving novel in well over a decade" ( Vanity Fair ). Winner of a 2013 Lambda Literary Award A New York Times bestselling novel of desire, secrecy, and sexual identity, In One Person is a story of unfulfilled love--tormented, funny, and affecting--and an impassioned embrace of our sexual differences. Billy, the bisexual narrator and main character of In One Person , tells the tragicomic story (lasting more than half a century) of his life as a "sexual suspect," a phrase first used by John Irving in 1978 in his landmark novel of "terminal cases," The World According to Garp . In One Person is a poignant tribute to Billy's friends and lovers--a theatrical cast of characters who defy category and convention. Not least, In One Person is an intimate and unforgettable portrait of the solitariness of a bisexual man who is dedicated to making himself "worthwhile."

"[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), [In One Person] is a staggeringly ambitious work, and its success reaffirms Irvings place among our greatest working novelists. BookPage (Fiction Top Pick, May 2012), " 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 peculiaritiesin a fierce, not a saccharine, way. Now he has extended his sympathiesand oursstill further into areas that even the misfits eschew. Anthropologists say that the interstitialwhatever lies between two familiar oppositesis usually declared either taboo or sacred. John Irving in this magnificent novelhis 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, "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, "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 .

With my patients' deaths, almost always occurring in the prime of life, I would find myself cataloging the other losses--namely, what these people might have offered society had they lived the full measure of their days: their art, their literature, the children they might have raised. In One Person is the novel that for me will define that era.A profound truth is arrived at in these pages. It is Irving at his most daring, at his most ambitious.It is America and American writing, both at their very best." -- Abraham Verghese, "This tender exploration of nascent desire, of love and loss, manages to be sweeping, brilliant, political, provocative, tragic, and funny-it is precisely the kind of astonishing alchemy we associate with a John Irving novel.
