A Prayer for Owen Meany is my all time favorite book. The first time I read it, I started late in the afternoon. I read it in one sitting then immediately started over from the beginning. I have never done that with another book. I am not sure how many times I have read A Prayer for Owen Meany but plan to read it many more. It affects me just as deeply each time. It is the most complete novel I have ever read. ...please ...I shall keep asking
