John Wheelwright's Life and Career Wheelwright states that the basic "enigma" in life is the relationship of the individual to the rest of humankind. Wheelwright's several poems against the threat of a second world war indicate that his socialist views were not based on mere sentimental feelings; they stemmed from an understanding of the class basis of war. A striking example of Wheelwright's limitations as a theorist is his consistent policy of calling putatively apolitical poetry "nihilist." In contrast to those who correlate this type of writing with the interest of the ruling class, Wheelwright's approach seems less mechanical and sectarian; yet it is indicative of a hesitancy to pursue the issue thoroughly. www.english.uiuc.edu /maps/poets/s_z/wheelwright/bio.htm   (3420 words)

SparkNotes: A Prayer for Owen Meany: Characters In the novel, John serves both as a fixed perspective and as a contrast to the character of Owen Meany, a passive foil for Owen's charismatic dynamism. Wheelwright is the matriarch of the town in her old age, and represents aristocracy and New England propriety throughout the novel. Wheelwright maintains a manor at 80 Front Street in Gravesend, where John is largely raised and where many of the novel's most important events take place. www.sparknotes.com /lit/owenmeany/characters.html   (1431 words)

Theology Today - Vol 46, No. 4 - January 1990 - BOOK REVIEW - A Prayer for Owen Meany Irving has Wheelwright conduct his long conversational narrative in a style so pedestrian that it includes the texts of favorite hymns and is interspersed with quotations from the Bible. An Anglican "convert," Wheelwright ends up being a nondescript parishoner of "Grace Church-on-the Hill." His Owen Meany-inspired struggle to believe in God is bounded by the comfortable neighborhood between Upper Canada College and the St. Clair Reservoir, where he likes to walk his dog. It would be inappropriate, of course, to confuse John Wheelwright with John Irving, but the two seem to be enough alike to prevent one from writing off either of them as a religious kook. theologytoday.ptsem.edu /jan1990/v46-4-bookreview1.htm   (1018 words)
