Your Satisfaction is Guaranteed:
Hilarious, energetic, and profoundly touching, a debut novel follows a young writer as he travels to the farmlands of eastern Europe, where he embarks on a quest to find Augustine, the woman who saved his grandfather from the Nazis, and, guided by his young Ukrainian translator, he discovers an unexpected past that will resonate far into the future. Excerpt in The New Yorker.
Review:
"Comedy and pathos are braided together with extraordinary skill in a haunting debut....Beauty from ashes."
Kirkus, 01/01/2002
Review:"Foer has taken on the Big subject of the past century--the Holocaust--and, not too surprisingly, it proves to be too big a subject for his undeveloped talent."
Brooke Allen, Atlantic Monthly, April 2002

Everything Is Illuminated (Hardback) (ISBN: 9780618173877) Foer, Jonathan Safran Quantity Available: 1
Book Description: Houghton Mifflin Harcourt, 2002. Hardback. Book Condition: New. 237 x 161 mm. Brand New Book with Free Worldwide Delivery. 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.
