RETOLD BY JOHN ESCOTT SERIES EDITORS: ANDY HOPKINS AND JOCELYN POTTER “FORREST GUMP”

Abstract

English author John Escott's Forrest Gump beautifully depicts human life and feelings through logical and vivid images. We quickly realize this is true in this wonderfully warm and funny story about Forrest Gump, a good-hearted young man from Albama in the USA. One day when Curtis had to change a wheel on the car, I helped him. “if you’re an idiot, he said angrily, how do you know how to do that? Maybe I am an idiot, I said, but I’m not stupid”. ‘’I was born an idiot, but I’m cleaverer than most people think.”
