Everything is Illuminated

"But like his life, he couldn't for the life of him lose the note. It kept returning to him. It stayed with him, like a part of him, like a birthmark, like a limb, it was on him, in him, him, his hymn: I had to do it for myself."
- Everything is Illuminated by Jonathan Safran Foer

I just finished what I would say is the best piece of literature written in the past couple of decades (and of what I've read/heard about). It. is. amazing. I've never been so captivated and engrossed in a book before and I've NEVER enjoyed re-reading a book... until I met this one.

So, yes. If you haven't already, please go check this book out (remember, buy secondhand!)
