When I decided to assume the alias of Garp, I was pretty sure that it would be taken and that I would have to settle for my second choice, Gatsby. Why Garp? Because John Irving certainly has been an influence and an inspiration.
Random Thoughts: My friends know that I am confsed. They also know that I take pride in my confusion.
Favorite Reading: Slaughterhouse Five, Cider House Rules, Midnight`s Children, Catch 22
Favorite Writers: John Irving, Kurt Vonnegut Jr., Saadat Hasan Manto, Franz Kafka
