Summary

Winston Groom: Forrest Gump

I know because I've been an idiot since birth, my quotient is 70, and that's pretty much the limit. But you know, we are smarter than people think. Any idiot would admit that to you."
This is how Forrest Gump by the American writer Winston Groom, originally published in 1986, begins, a novel that owes its second birth in 1994 primarily to the film of the same name, perhaps precisely because it is in a way similar to it, and yet completely different from it. Forrest Gump is a kind of satirical chronology of America, experienced through the eyes and described in the language of a brilliantly talented but half-literate idiot. Set among vivid scenery. of the modern world, and a little more widely, the versatile Gump and a multitude of exotic protagonists involved in sometimes humorous, sometimes nostalgic events, will make you laugh at times, and then make you sad - and both to the point of tears. However, they will most often surprise you with Gumpisms - simple truths of life that are clear to every idiot, and which can be summed up in one: "A mind is fine if you have it, but life is lived with the heart!
