A Prayer for Owen Meany | comment |
There are three things about Owen Meany that are unusual. The first is that even when he reaches adulthood he is under five feet tall. The second is his damaged voicebox, trapped in a permanent scream that alternately amuses and scares those around him. The third? He calls himself Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_3'); })GOD'S INSTRUMENT, and he might be right.Written by John Irving, A Prayer For Owen Meany (1989) is best described as intentional Glurge with an undercurrent of despairing Postmodernism. Critical reception has generally been positive, as has its reception by high school English teachers. | |

Anachronic Order: A few scenes, the scenes in the present day non-withstanding, take place years after the main parts of the novel, but are tied in with it. | |

All Part of the Show: During the Nativity play, Owen (playing Jesus) stands up and addresses the audience, telling them they are not worthy and should be ashamed of themselves for even setting foot in a church. The audience sitting in the church assumes this is a sermon to them and part of the play; the reader knows that Owen was talking to his sacrilegious parents. | |
