John Irving returns to the themes that established him as one of our most admired and beloved authors in this absorbing novel of fate and memory.As we grow oldeŕђؤmost of all, in what we remember and what we dreaḿђؤwe live in the past. Sometimes, we live more vividly in the past than in the present. As an older man, Juan Diego will take a trip to the Philippines, but what travels with him are his dreams and memories; he is most alive in his childhood and early adolescence in Mexico. "An aura of fate had marked him," John Irving writes, of Juan Diego. "The chain of events, the links in our liveśђؤwhat leads us where we're going, the courses we follow to our ends, what we don't see coming, and what we dóђؤall this can be mysterious, or simply unseen, or even obvious." Avenue of Mysteries is the story of what happens to Juan Diego in the Philippines, where what happened to him in the past́ђؤin Mexicóђؤcollides with his future.
