Of all of John Irving's books, this is the one that lends itself best to audio. In print, Owen Meany's dialogue is set in capital letters; for this production, Irving himself selected Joe Barrett to deliver Meany's difficult voice as intended. In the summer of 1953, two 11-year-old boys – best friends – are playing in a Little League baseball game in Gravesend, New Hampshire. One of the boys hits a foul ball that kills the other boy's mother. The boy who hits the ball doesn't believe in accidents; Owen Meany believes he is God's instrument. What happens to Owen after that 1953 foul ball is extraordinary and terrifying.

Story2
For an atheist it’s a great deal, though it does suggest atheism may have a weak point. For those of faith it’s a matter of jam now and purgatory tomorrow. A bargain many artists feel is something they can live with. For agnostics it’s usually a question of can the afterlife really be that bad, would workplace regulations reach all parts of heaven and hell. However, in this volume the terms are agreed and the Devil pays his fees and the character his dues, each happy to wait a few decades for the eternal payback.

Ruth Cole har aldrig kendt sine to brødre, der omkom i en tragisk ulykke. Som lille pige opdigter hun historier om dem, og på den måde bliver fundamentet for hendes fremtidige forfatterkarriere lagt. Vi møder Ruth tre gange. Første gang i 1958, da hun er fire år gammel. I 1990, da hun er blevet en berømt forfatter, der har større succes i sin litterære karriere end i sit privatliv.
