Jonathan Safran Foer idézet
oldal 7

Jonathan Safran Foer egyesült államokbeli író. Leginkább Minden vilángol és Rém hangosan és irtó közel című regényeiről ismert. 2009-ben megjelentetett egy ismeretterjesztő művet Állatok a tányéromon címmel. Annak ellenére, hogy munkáit széles körű szakmai elismerés övezi, egyfajta megosztó személy maradt a kritikusok körében, akit szenvedélyes dicséretekkel és kritikákkal egyaránt elhalmoznak. Jelenleg kreatív írást tanít a New York Egyetemen. Wikipedia

Oskar's grandmother
"My Feelings" (p. 314)
Forrás: Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close (2005)
Kontextus: I said, I want to tell you something She said, you can tell me tomorrow I had never told her how much I loved her. She was my sister. We slept in the same bed. There was never a right time to say it. It was always unnecessary. I thought about waking her. But it was unnecessary. There would be other nights. And how can you say I love you to someone you love? I rolled onto my side and fell asleep next to her. Here is the point of everything I have been trying to tell you, Oskar. It's always necessary. I love you. Grandma.
