Time greeted the novel with enthusiasm: "Brutal reality and hallucination, comedy and pathos. A rich, unified tapestry." Five of his novels have been adapted into films (Garp, Hotel, Meany, Cider, Widow). Several of Irving's books (Garp, Meany, Widow) and short stories have been set in and around Phillips Exeter Academy in the town of Exeter, New Hampshire.”
