I am doomed to remember a boy with a wrecked voice.
A boy named Owen Meany,a figure similer to christ but can never be as perfect as this heavenly being. His voice was the sound of all those murdered mice,coming back to life-with a vengeance!But it's not because of his voice that I remember him nor his tiny,pale figure nor the fact he killed his best friends mother but because he is the reason John Wheelwright believes in God. "GOD HAS TAKEN YOUR MOTHER.MY HANDS WERE THE INSTRUMENT.GOD HAS TAKEN MY HANDS.I AM GODS INSTRUMENT." For an eleven year old to express these intence words symbolically through a toy armadillo is showing a wisdom and understanding beyond his years,not only that but to call himself a messenger of God surly thats a sign.
