Sobre este artículo
Toronto: Alred A. Knopf, 1998. First Canadian edition of Irving's powerful ninth novel. Octavo, original boards. Signed by John Irving on the title page. Fine in a fine dust jacket. Jacket design by Honi Werner. "A sprawling 19th-century production, chock full of bizarre coincidences, multiple plot lines, lengthy digressions, and stories within stories. . . . An engaging and often affecting fable, a fairy tale that manages to be old-fashioned and modern all at once" (The New York Times). The first third of the novel was adapted into the film The Door in the Floor in 2004 starring Jeff Bridges and Kim Basinger.
Sinopsis

In 1992, Mr. Irving was inducted into the National Wrestling Hall of Fame in Stillwater, Oklahoma. In 2000, he won the Oscar for Best Adapted Screenplay for The Cider House Rules –a film with seven Academy Award nominations.
