365 p. The Water Method Man is the second published novel by Irving. A little-known fact about this novel is that Irving, for a time, considered making the "Old Low Norse" poem, "Akthelt and Gunnel", into his actual second novel. It was going to be called, "Love Among the Greths". But after reading about Walker Percy's novel, "Love Among the Ruins", Irving abandoned the whimsical idea and wrote the now-published novel. Slight foxing to top edge and with a crease to front jacket flap, otherwise clean and tight. [Loc.12].
