    Does anyone have a copy (new or used) of John Irving's The World According to Garp?

    I just want to read the story so I'm willing to do a book trade (considering I have one you're interested in), do a borrow or buy it from you. Honestly I'd prefer to buy it (in English) because I tend to keep books I read. Anyway, if anyone has a copy, please let me know.

    Thanks!

    You've inquired at Needless Things and Alma Libre bookstores?

    Have you looked in Needful Things on Coba? It's right down the street from the Pasteleria restaurant. Used books and artwork in Cancun, Mexico

    And a board regular is Alma Libre in PM. Puerto Morelos, Mexico Bookstore - Alma Libre Bookstore

    Used softcovers are very inexpensive.

    Yes I've looked. They do have one in Spanish, hence me asking on here. An English copy will turn up sooner or later. :)

    I have the book as a Word document. I can email it to you if you send me a PM with an email address. Sorry I didn't think of it sooner, but it's been buried on a backup drive for years.

    I sent you a PM with my address as well as the story behind the story.

    Looking forward to it.

    Thank you!!

    Thanks


    Thank you for the information but I don't live in Puerto Morelos and I don't have a car here...so going out there for a book is not convienent for me. I do, however, have a fresh copy of that book being flown in next week so all is well.
