Another Triumph!
By Ophelia
I am a loyal fan of Mr. Irving and have read his entire collection of stories over the years. But this book probably should have been edited down to a more reasonable size based on the nature of this particular story. It could have had some more material added and then possibly split into a sequel...
Despite the weighty moroseness and risqué portions of the book, which others have described, there are some other aspects of the story I found appealing. I found the minor characters to be very useful in fleshing out the living world around the main character and though some might think the number to be excessive, I think it actually helped.
Also, the masterful usage of flashbacks and a certain prevailing sincerity of conviction in telling the tale over all, kept me reading its 800+ pages.
It's a fine addition to his body of work and I eagerly await the next.
Also recommended, Anna's Trinity by Howard Cobiskey.

Make A Wish Upon A Star
By Constant Weeder
Irving, John, Until I Find You. New York: Random House, 2005.
To write an 821 page novel you need a word processor. Processed words can get out of hand, can get to looking silly. On page 690 we read, "He is often seen sitting up in bed in the morning--just his top half, naked." Fine. But the author plunges on witlessly: "(The rest of him is under the sheets)." After reading endlessly about sex and tattoos and having sex and being tattooed, we get the ultimate confidential admission: that this author is tired. His word processor is wreathing the book with redundancies. That cost him a star in my review. Another star winked out because this Jack character the author presents is pretty boring. His sexuality is mixed as well as mixed-up; his lines as an actor come out of his mouth offstage. He's not worth the effort. The book lost a third star because early in the book Jack and his mother make a long trip around the North Sea ports when he is age four. By the time he repeats the trip, 400 pages later, we are days or weeks beyond that point in our reading and have forgotten where they went, who they met, and why it matters.
I would have given the book two stars were it not for the title, which is meaningless. Oh, and there's no humor.

Scarred for life?
By Jeremy Gilien
John Irving has done something unique with 'Until I Find You'; he has stamped a permanent imprint on the reader, as indelible as the tattoos that cover the body of the organist William Burns, father of the novel's protagonist Jack. From here on whenever I see someone with a tattoo, I think I shall at once be transported back to Irving's world of North Sea ports, imposing cathedrals with their mighty organs, colorful tattoo parlors, and a lenghty cast of some of his most eccentric characters.
In the book's dedication, Irving wishes his own young son a childhood "as different from the one described here as anyone could imagine", and it is not difficult to see how the adventures of young Jack could easily lead to the kind of neurosis he would be dealing with throughout adulthood. At a tender age Jack is schlepped around Europe by his mother for an increasingly unclear purpose. At school he is thrown in alongside sexually rapacious girls and older women intent on the corruption of his innocence. As an adult, Jack is constantly besieged by both sexes drawn to his good looks and celebrity status. It would would take a miracle to come away from this with no emotional scarring, yet with the help of a no-nonsense psychologist, Jack does seem to be able to make some progress.
The reader does not actually meet the object of the book's title until the final chapter, so for over 700 pages we anticipate the reunion of Jack and his father. We want to find out for ourselves what kind of person William Burns really is, as Jack's dim remembrances and the second or third hand recollections of numerous acquaintances give us only conflicting impressions of this remarkable man.
Despite the somewhat melancholy tone of the narrative and several sad events, Jack's story does not ultimately turn out to be the tragedy one might have predicted. In the end, he shows that he is made of something deeper than just the surface gloss of an appeal that has attracted many in such superficial ways. Irving has always managed to tell his outrageous tales in an understated, matter-of-fact kind of way, and this is a good thing, for if the writing style was as manic as the material, Irving's work could easily become crazy-making and unreadable. Fortunately, Irving is a master of controlled style, and even while describing the crude and unsavory as he frequently does, his prose remains elegant and restrained.
'Until I Find You' has now joined my short list of Irving favourites, along with 'A Son of the Circus' and 'The Water-Method Man' -- neither of which, interestingly enough, has been made into a film. It wouldn't surprise me if a film attempt was made at this book, but I fear many of its subtleties would go by the wayside in a transfer to that medium. As a novel, however, it was extremely satisfying, and can be placed alongside Irving's best.
