Jonathan Safran Foer idézet
oldal 8

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
