Until I Find You

By John Irving

A melancholy tale of deception, Until I Find You is also a swaggering comic novel, a giant tapestry of life's hopes. It is a masterpiece to compare with John Irving's great novels, and restates the author's claim to be considered the most glorious, comic, moving novelist at work today.

A Widow for One Year

By John Irving

Both ribald and erotic, A Widow for One Year is also a brilliant, multi-layered work about the passage of time and the relentlessness of grief.

A Prayer for Owen Meany

By John Irving

Our Shelf Talker

R.J. Julia All-Time Staff Favorite

I love John Irving and this is one of his best: a complicated plot, quirky characters and lots of symbolism. Owen Meany is a character you won't forget: his dwarfish size and a strange voice. He accidentally kills his best friend's mother, an event that assures Owen he is destined to be a martyr. You will laugh, you will feel sadness, but you will be glad you read it.
