THE INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER ADAPTED INTO A FEATURE FILM WITH TOM
HANKS From the critically acclaimed author of Here I Am, Everything
is Illuminated and We are the Weather - a heartrending and
unforgettable novel set in the aftermath of the 9/11 'Utterly
engaging, hugely involving, tragic, funny and intensely moving... A
heartbreaker' Spectator 'The most incredible fictional
nine-year-old ever created... a funny, heart-rending portrayal of a
child coping with disaster. It will have you biting back the tears'
Glamour 'Pulsates with dazzling ideas' Times Literary Supplement
'It's a miracle... So impeccably imagined, so courageously
executed, so everlastingly moving' Baltimore Sun 'Jonathan Safran
Foer is a writer of considerable brilliance' Observer In a vase in
a closet, a couple of years after his father died in 9/11,
nine-year-old Oskar discovers a key... The key belonged to his
father, he's sure of that. But which of New York's 162 million
locks does it open? So begins a quest that takes Oskar - inventor,
letter-writer and amateur detective - across New York's five
boroughs and into the jumbled lives of friends, relatives and
complete strangers. He gets heavy boots, he gives himself little
bruises and he inches ever nearer to the heart of a family mystery
that stretches back fifty years. But will it take him any closer
to, or even further from, his lost father?
