Oskar Schell is the definition of a nine year old in a 25 year old man’s body. His thoughts are not of the average nine year old and his actions are definitely not of nine year old. Jonathan Safran Foer allows his readers to experience a different kind of protagonist. Oskar is much more adventurous, creative, and ambitious than many characters that we see in most fictional novels.
I feel that the novel itself is a very creative piece because it is a simple read with a difficult concept. It’s an easy read because of the storyline being about 9/11 and following Oskars journey, but it’s also difficult because the author incorporates random letters (marriage), creative images (p. 47-49), and makes the novel a mystery.
Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close is definitely a movie that I’m looking forward to seeing next year! I mean how many nine year olds tell women their beautiful just because their fat? And who doesn’t like Sandra Bullock ?!?! =)
I chose to put this image in my post because when the woman ask the man to marry her I found it to be so random and funny , because it reminded me of the candy hearts with messages on them.
