With only a yellowing photograph in hand, a young man - also named Jonathan Safran Foer - sets out to find the woman who might or might not have saved his grandfather from the Nazis. Accompanied by an old man haunted by memories of the war, an amorous dog named Sammy Davis, Junior, Junior, and the unforgettable Alex, a young Ukrainian translator who speaks in a sublimely butchered English, Jonathan is led on a quixotic journey over a devastated landscape and into an unexpected past. As their adventure unfolds, Jonathan imagines the history of his grandfather's village, conjuring a magical fable of startling symmetries that unite generations across time. Lit by passion, fear, guilt, memory, and hope, the characters in Everything Is Illuminated mine the black holes of history. As the search moves back in time, the fantastical history moves forward, until reality collides with fiction in a heart-stopping scene of extraordinary power. An arresting blend of high comedy and great tragedy, this is a story about searching for people and places that no longer exist, for the hidden truths that haunt every family, and for the delicate but necessary tales that link past and future. Exuberant and wise, hysterically funny and deeply moving, EVERYTHING IS ILLUMINATED is an astonishing debut.

Met zijn bestseller Dieren eten veroorzaakte Jonathan Safran Foer een sensatie: veel van zijn lezers werden vegetariër, of werden zich op z'n minst bewust van hun eetgedrag, Nu pakt hij het grootste thema van deze tijd aan: klimaatverandering. Om dit onderwerp concreter en daardoor urgenter te maken, herinnert Foer ons aan de kracht van gezamenlijke actie en geeft hij voorbeelden van succesverhalen uit het verleden als stimulans. Op deze manier - die van elk individu slechts een kleine inspanning vergt maar bij collectieve actie uiterst effectief is - kunnen we een van de grootste veroorzakers van klimaatverandering aanpakken: de bio-industrie. Op zijn geheel eigen en verassende wijze spoort Foer de lezer aan om na te denken over hoe volgende generaties ons handelen op dit cruciale moment zullen beoordelen. Wij kúnnen de wereld nog redden, te beginnen bij het ontbijt. 'Op onconventionele maar overtuigende wijze legt Foer uit waarom actie ondernemen tegen klimaatverandering tegelijkertijd extreem eenvoudig en ongelooflijk moeilijk is. Foer dwingt de lezer de mate van zijn betrokkenheid bij ''de grootste crisis aller tijden'' te heroverwegen.'' - Publishers Weekly (starred) Bron : http://www.bol.com
