Review title: Laughed out loud one minute, cried the next
Product review: What a roller coaster! I literally laughed out loud while reading Owen Meany. By the end, I was crying. Owen Meany is one of the best characters in all of literary history. His straight-forward approach to life was refreshing and John Irving developed him to the point that made me care about Owen and what his future held out for him. The story had many twists and turns that were surprising yet somehow made sense. The symolism was rich throughout - Owen's metaphoric comparisons to Christ made the book almost haunting. His wisdom made it appealing. I would recommend this book to anyone who has the patience to read over 600 pages. This is John Irving's best!
