Meet Forrest Gump, America's most lovable hero and the star of this wonderfully wacky novel. Pulitzer Prize-nominee Winston Groom's tale of a warm-hearted, slow-witted man's rollicking romp through three decades of history was the inspiration for the Academy Award-winning motion picture Forrest Gump. But if you've only seen the movie, you've only heard part of Forrest's story. The original version of Forrest's adventures is even nuttier than the silver screen version.
