Join us as we discuss Jonathan Safran Foer’s 2005 book, Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close. Foer, who garnered attention with his novel Everything is Illuminated, once more takes a dark subject and works in offbeat humor. On the surface this is a story of a peculiar hero, nine-year-old Oskar Schell, as he goes on a quest through New York for the lock that fits with the key his father left behind after his untimely death in the September 11th attacks. On a deeper level it is a story of truth and love.
