I read this book cover to cover and put it down less than five times before finishing it.

This is also a very different and interesting look at the emotional effects of the 9/11 attacks on a child whose parent was lost. I (like many) feel very uncomfortable with the morbid curiosity and gross desire to capitalise on fear after 9/11, but this book really has nothing to do with patriotism or fear or revenge. It is a sensitive look at loss through the eyes of a little boy. ]]> http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/1152425 Everything Is Illuminated: A Novel (Paperback) by Jonathan Safran Foer
