A Prayer for Owen Meany by John Irving
In this book John Irving explores coincidence and events that can motivate religious faith. I found the story really beautiful and moving. I think the narrator's responses to Vietnam and especially to the Iran-Contra crisis fell a little bit flat. I really loved the character of Owen Meany, who kept surprising me, even at the very end.
