(Oct.Brief Summary of Book: The Last Chairlift by John Irving

Agents: Dean Cooke, Cooke McDermid, and Janet Turnbull, Turnbull Agency. His enormous imagination, his storytelling gifts, and his intelligence are all on display, but this feels more like a coda to his career, if one with a still-resonant theme about family and the maternal relationship: “We’re alone in the way we love our mothers, or in the way we don’t.” Irving’s fans may love this, but it’s not the place to start for anyone new to his work. Along the way, Irving chronicles American society from the 1950s to roughly the present, focused on feminism and sexual intolerance. Nora, an outspoken lesbian cousin who’s a victim of sexual violence, also plays a significant role.
