Book Review of A Prayer for Owen Meany

A Prayer for Owen Meany
reviewed on + 2 more book reviews


I read only the first 2 chapters. It was like reading a case study in psychiatry, now that I'm retired, I' don't want to read any more of those. The capital letters used for Owen felt like he was yelling at me. To me, yelling represents anger and violence, so I did not appreciate it. Way too much detail. I'm not going to read the rest of it.
