Here I am. Forer J.S.

Feoer's novel has been waiting for more than ten years. “Here I am” is a large -scale epic narrative, a book that clearly claims to be a great American novel. The Russian reader will certainly recall the well-known quote from Anna Karenina-"Each family is unhappy in its own way." For the heroes of the novel “Here I am,” Jacob and Julia, who lived in marriage and gave birth to three sons, is perceived not just as misfortune - as the end of the world. Private tragedy is aggravated by global tragedy - a strong earthquake in the Middle East leads to an increase in a military conflict. The connection of times and the connection between people are torn - loneliness is felt with a hitherto unheated acuteness, everyone is alone with their fears.

, from now on, the heroes will have to look at their life in a new way and see the gap-between the life of the desired and the life of the resident.
