From the author of
A Prayer for Owen Meany
and
The World According to Garp
comes "his most daringly political, sexually transgressive, and moving novel in well over a decade" (
Vanity Fair
).
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."
