Battle OTB: A Prayer for Owen Meany (EastBlack) v Brave New World (Pubey)

[MK Shrimper]

2nd tie of today

 

[Tangled up in Blue]

Has to be "Sky,sky" for me.

 

[Eastblack]

I sense a first round exit here...

Owen Meany is a really great book, but I realise its probably not one that too many people may have read. If you haven't I urge you to.

This is an absorbing and really moving book that explores the meaning of friendship, family, religion, life and to some extent death.

I can't do it justice with my own review so I've copied this link http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/4473.A_Prayer_for_Owen_Meany

Vote Owen!

Well done to Pubey and thanks to Ricey for his unwavering support throughout this hard fought campaign.

A Prayer to Owen Meany sounds like a great book and one I need to read. Glad to see BNW got through fairly easily, I didn't even realise it's round had come up!

I haven't read either of them so it probably doesn't matter what I didn't think!!

Too late I'm afraid. I've been so busy that I've just realised that 'Battle OTB' is taking place. Loved Irving's early books and particularly this one...........unfortunately the poll has closed!
