Synopsis
'The first of my father's illusions was that bears could survive the life lived by human beings, and the second was that human beings could survive a life led in hotels'. So says John Berry, son of a hapless dreamer, brother to a cadre of eccentric siblings, and chronicler of the lives lived, the loves experienced, the deaths met, and the myriad strange and wonderful times encountered by the family Berry. Hoteliers, pet-bear owners, friends of Freud (the animal trainer and vaudevillian, that is), and playthings of mad fate, they 'dream on' in this funny, sad, outrageous, and moving novel.

From the Back Cover
"A hectic gaudy saga with the verve of a Marx Brothers movie."
-The New York Times Book Review
"Like Garp, [The Hotel New Hampshire] is a startlingly original family saga that combines macabre humor with Dickensian sentiment and outrage at cruelty, dogmatism and injustice."
-Time
"Rejoice! John Irving has written another book according to your world. . . . You must read this book."
-Los Angeles Times
"Spellbinding . . . Intensely human . . . A high-wire act of dazzling virtuosity."
