Hier bin ich
Ein aufrüttelndes Meisterwerk über Identität, Familie und den Wunsch nach Zugehörigkeit - Jonathan Safran Foer enthüllt in 'Hier bin ich' die essentielle Suche nach dem eigenen Platz in einer immer komplexeren Welt.Wie können wir all die Rollen, die wir zu spielen haben, glaubhaft unter einen Hut bekommen? Wie gleichzeitig Sohn, Vater und Ehemann sein? Oder Mutter, Ehefrau und Geliebte? Erwachsener und Kind? Oder gar Amerikaner und Jude? Wie können wir wir selbst sein, wenn unser Leben doch so eng mit allen anderen verbunden ist? Diese Fragen stehen im Zentrum von Jonathan Safran Foers erstem Roman seit elf Jahren.'Hier bin ich' erzählt von vier turbulenten Wochen im Leben einer Familie in tiefer Krise. Julia und Jacob haben sich auseinandergelebt, doch wie könnten sie sich trennen, ohne dass ihre drei Söhne darunter leiden oder gar sie selbst? Immer wieder diskutieren sie alle Szenarien durch, kümmern sich aufopferungsvoll um den inkontinenten Hund und die bevorstehende Bar Mitzwa des ältesten Sohns. Gerade als die israelische Verwandtschaft zur Familienfeier in Washington, D.C. eintrifft, ereignet sich ein katastrophales Erdbeben im Nahen Osten, das die Invasion Israels zur Folge hat. Die Fragen 'Was ist Heimat? Was bedeutet Zuhause?' stellen sich noch einmal ganz neu, auch für Jacob.Jonathan Safran Foer schreibt sich mit seinem dritten Roman endgültig in den Olymp der amerikanischen Literatur.

Extrem laut und unglaublich nah
'Jonathan Safran Foers zweiter Roman erfüllt alle unsere Erwartungen. Er ist ehrgeizig, brillant, geheimnisvoll und vor allem in der Schilderung des verwaisten Oskar zutiefst bewegend.'Salman RushdieOskar Schell ist altklug und naseweis, hochbegabt und phantasievoll. Eine kleine Nervensäge, die schon mit neun Jahren eine Visitenkarte vorweist, auf der sie sich als Erfinder, Schmuckdesigner und Tamburinspieler ausweist. Vor allem aber ist Oskar todtraurig und tief verstört. Auch noch zwei Jahre nachdem sein Vater beim Angriff auf das World Trade Center ums Leben kam. Nun will er herausfinden, warum Thomas Schell, der ein Juweliergeschäft hatte, sich ausgerechnet an diesem Tag dort aufhielt. Mit seinem Tamburin zieht Oskar durch New York und gerät in aberwitzige Abenteuer.'Ein spektakuläres, sprachmächtiges Buch. Foer ist ein literarisches Wunderkind, ein großartiger, plastischer, sinnlicher Geschichtenerzähler.' Der Tagesspiegel'Ein ... herzzerreißender und ernsthaft spannender Roman.'Rolling StoneSpiegel-Bestseller

Se niente importa. Perché mangiamo gli animali?
Jonathan Safran Foer ci propone una riflessione sul cibo partendo dal ricordo personale di sua nonna, dalla forza che durante la guerra la spinse a rifiutare della carne di maiale che l'avrebbe tenuta in vita, perché non era cibo kosher, e 'se niente importa, non c'è niente da salvare'. Il cibo per lei non era solo cibo, ma 'terrore, dignità, gratitudine, vendetta, gioia, umiliazione, religione, storia e, ovviamente, amore'. Una volta diventato padre, Foer ripensa a questo insegnamento e inizia a interrogarsi su cosa sia la carne, perché nutrire un figlio è ancora più importante che nutrire se stessi. Così nasce questo libro, frutto di un'indagine durata quasi tre anni, che è insieme racconto, inchiesta e testimonianza e che invita tutti alla riflessione, indicando nel dolore degli animali - e soprattutto nella nostra sensibilità verso chi è 'inerme' e 'senza voce' - il discrimine fra umano e inumano, fra chi accetta senza battere ciglio le condizioni imposte dall'allevamento industriale e chi le mette in discussione.
