A Prayer for Owen Meany is a novel about a small boy named Owen Meany who believes he is God's instrument, and his best friend John Wheelwright's recounting of Owen's extraordinary life and how his actions, like accidentally killing John's mother with a foul ball, seem to be guided by a preordained purpose. The story, told through John's memories from the 1950s and 60s, explores themes of faith, destiny, friendship, and the profound, often tragic, consequences of seemingly small events.
