Description

Everything Is Illuminated is a historical novel, a road movie, a play, and a love story informed by magical realism as well as Jewish narrative traditions. The mood is tender and silly, erratic and touching. And the themes are just as varied: betrayal, guilt, courage, memory, love, friendship, death.

It took me ten tries to get over the first 37 pages or something but then suddenly it clicked and oh god, this book is so fantastic. I have to re-read it to understand it better probably and see more layers.
