Synopsis
A Prayer for Owen Meany is a novel by American writer John Irving, first published in 1989. It tells the story of John Wheelwright and his best friend Owen Meany growing up together in a small New England town during the 1950-60s. Owen is a remarkable boy in many ways; he believes himself to be God's instrument and journeys on an extraordinary path of death, birth, love, disclosure and sacrifice.
Reviews
On Aug 14 2022, a reader said:
Great book. In Irvings usual style, it tells the story of a person with faults interspersed with hilarious irreverent interjections. I’ve read it several times and still see something new every time.
