A Prayer for Owen Meaney by John Irving.  Nominated by Gwen Dillow.

Goodreads rating: 4.24   Genre:  Contemporary Fiction, Coming of Age   Published 1990

Eleven-year-old Owen Meany, playing in a Little League baseball game, hits a foul ball with devastating consequences.  Owen doesn’t believe in accidents; he believes he is God’s instrument.  At times a comic, self-deluded victim, but in the end the principal, tragic actor in a divine plan, Owen Meany is a most heartbreaking hero.
