John Irving on Writing and his Influences
Not certain this is the right section for this but it is interesting and about writing and writing influences. I couldn't see a way to embed it so here's the link:

Yes. Garp, The Cider House Rules, and most recently (and best! ) Last Night in Twisted River.

And we can't foget The Hotel New Hampshire -- my favorite, after Garp (although I think he could have ended it before the family move to Vienna; but then then there wouldn't have been enough weirdness in it for it to be an Irving novel)

Looking forward to Last Night
