At many times the story brought me to tears. John Irving’s storytelling is complex and many of his characters are richly developed, I now know some of them better than some of my friends. Like many Irving books, the story takes some wild turns and I am in awe at how he can create such a remarkable story. I was captivated through most of the book as he told the tale of three people who cope through the overwhelming accidents of life. A must for Irving fans.

In 2008, two young men journeyed out on a quest to right the wrongs of poor punctuation. Equipped with permanent markers, Wite-Out, and other tools necessary for the eradication of errant commas and misplaced apostrophes, they circumnavigated America, blogging as they transformed souviner into souvenir; it's to its. The typos led them to unexpected conclusions, unforeseen destinations, and opened them up to a world that begged a closer look--at questions about the makings of America, education, racism, history, and human connection.
