"An astonishing feat" THE TIMES
A young man arrives in the Ukraine, clutching in his hand a tattered photograph. He is searching for the woman who fifty years ago saved his grandfather from the Nazis. Unfortunately, he is aided in his quest by Alex, a translator with an uncanny ability to mangle English into bizarre new forms; a "blind" old man haunted by memories of the war; and an undersexed guide dog named Sammy Davis Jr, Jr. What they are looking for seems elusive -- a truth hidden behind veils of time, language and the horrors of war. What they find turns all their worlds upside down.

Softcover. Zustand: Near fine. First thus. A great association copy, inscribed ornately to his fellow eminent New York City writer: "For Oliver Sacks, who I admire enormously, best, Jonathan Safran Foer." Foer's acclaimed debut novel, uncommon signed in this edition. It won the The Guardian First Book Prize and the National Jewish Book Award among others.Toning to pages, otherwise fine in wraps. Oliver Sacks was a British neurologist that theNew York Timesdubbed "the poet laureate of contemporary medicine." He spent the bulk of his medical career as a professor of neurology at Yeshiva University's Albert Einstein College of Medicine. There he began to write about some of his neurology patients (he burned the manuscript of his first book,Ward 23, in a fit of anxiety about his new direction). He went on to publish fourteen books from 1970 to 2015, the year he died also of cancer, most of them with a focus on highly researched clinical anecdotes, including such lauded works asThe Man Who Mistook His Wife for a Hat(the main case study of which is a man with "face blindness," something Sacks also suffered from, and which deeply impacted his social interactions) andThe Island of the Colorblind .
