Owen Meany has a dream about how he is going to die. Usually his dreams/visions come true. How is that you may ask yourself? Well Owen Meany is portrayed as a Christ Figure. In How to Read Literature like a Professor a Christ figure is explained and Owen Meany meets many of the qualifications to becoming one. Owen Meany’s dream seems to be not coming true as he decides to cut John’s finger off so he doesn't join the war. John is significant to Owen’s dream because he is in the scene in which Owen dies. The scene takes place in the war as Owen saves children making him a hero. Is Owen’s dream really just a dream or will it come true? Owen has had connections with the devil and GOD for example when he supposedly sees the angel of death and his religious beliefs are very strong. So there is a slight possibility that the dream might come true. Owen has really built up the plot of the story and at first didn't seem like the main character but now he is. Will it just be the end for John as well if Owen dies because Owen has also carried John through all the tough times.
