Product Overview
Owen Meany, the only child of a New Hampshire granite quarrier, believes he is God's instrument; he is.
This is John Irving's most comic novel, yet Owen Meany is Mr. Irving's most heartbreaking character.
Roomy, intelligent, exhilarating and darkly comic...Dickensian in scope....Quite stunning and very ambitious.
LOS ANGELES TIMES BOOK REVIEW
