About this book

A Prayer for Owen Meany: A Novel by Irving, John. hardcover edition. ISBN: 9780062299567.

A deluxe collector’s edition of John Irving’s beloved A Prayer for Owen Meany―an unforgettable coming-of-age tale that ranks among the most cherished American classics, including To Kill a Mockingbird and Catcher in the Rye. In the summer of 1953, two eleven-year-old boys―best friends whose lives will be forever entwined by fate―are playing in a Little League baseball game in Gravesend, New Hampshire. One of the boys hits a foul ball that kills the other boy’s mother. The boy who hits the ball doesn’t believe in accidents; Owen Meany believes he is God’s instrument. What happens to Owen after that 1953 foul ball is extraordinary.
