Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close by Jonathan Safran Foer

Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close by Jonathan Safran Foer

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?

Wise, funny, unbearably sadSpeeds across the sky like a new-century comet heralding great events in the asteroid belt of fiction * Financial Times *
Utterly engaging, beautifully realised. From the very page it is a hugely involving read . . . a heartbreaker: tragic, funny, intensely moving * Spectator *
Serious, funny, yet achingly heartbreaking * Herald *
Dramatically original . . . Safran Foer is a writer of considerable brilliance * Observer *
