adam_text | So begins John living s eleventh novel, Until I
Find You, the story of the actor Jack Burns. His
mother, Alice, is a Toronto tattoo artist. When
Jack is four, he travels with Alice to several North
Sea ports; they are trying to find Jack s mis¬
sing father, William, a church organist who is ad¬
dicted to being tattooed. But Alice is a mystery, and
William can t be found. Even Jack s memories
are subject to doubt.
Jack Burns is educated at schools in Canada
and New England, but he is shaped by his rela¬
tionships with older women. Mr. Irving renders
Jack s life as an actor in Hollywood with the
same richness of detail and range of emotions
he uses to describe the tattoo parlors in those
North Sea ports and the reverberating music
Jack heard as a child in European churches.
The author s tone
voice of this novel
in increments both measurable and not, our
childhood is stolen from us
momentous event but often in a series of small
robberies, which add up to the same loss. )
Until I Find You is suffused with overwhelming
sadness and deception; it is also a robust and
comic novel, certain to be compared to Mr.
Irving s most ambitious and moving work.

age of twenty-six. He has received awards from
the Rockefeller Foundation, the National
Endowment for the Arts, and the Guggenheim
Foundation; he has won an O. Henry Award, a
