Jonathan Safran Foer

Jonathan Safran Foer published his award-winning first novel, Everything Is Illuminated, at the age of 25. "Rarely does a writer as young as Foer display such virtuosity and wisdom," raved the Washington Post. His next novel, Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close, became a national bestseller. Synthesizing philosophy, literature, science, and Foer's own detective work, Eating Animals explores the fictions that we use to justify our eating habits--from folklore to family traditions--and reveals how such tales can justify an ignorance of the realities of the food industry.
