Jonathan Safran Foer is the author of "Full Illumination," "Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close," "Here I Am," and nonfiction "Meat. Eating Animals" and "Weather Is Us."
Foer's latest fiction novel has been waiting for more than a decade. “Here I am” is a large-scale epic narrative, a book that clearly claims to be a great American novel. The Russian reader will remember the famous quote from Anna Karenina: “Every family is unhappy in its own way.” For the heroes of the novel “Here I am”, Jacob and Julia, who lived half their lives in marriage and raised three sons, the discord is perceived not just as a disaster – as the end of the world. A particular tragedy is aggravated by a global tragedy: a strong earthquake in the Middle East leads to an increase in military conflict. The connection of times and the connection between people is broken - loneliness is felt with a hitherto unprecedented acuteness, everyone is alone with their fears.
From now on, the heroes will have to look at their lives in a new way and see the gap between the life they want and the life they live.
