Welcome to the Jonathan Safran Foer treasure-trove - all you've ever wanted to know about the author and more - biographies, books, timelines, videos, interviews, links.
Greetings Mr. Foer,Recently I read two of your recent interviews (the magazine "Il Venerdì di Repubblica", 2019 Aug 23 and newspaper "La repubblica" 2019, aug 25 and the first sentence reported in the first interview is this: "In words the environment is dear to everyone. In fact, much less, tending to nothing. Very few have the honesty to recognize it ". Totally agree. We need to modify our household habits. Now, in the today interview I’ve read that although reluctantly you will attend the show of your latest book in Italy and although you knows how polluting it is to travel by plane you will arrive as well by plane. Now my question is this: why didn't you choose to present your book with a video conference? It would have been an extremely strong signal given the things you write. You certainly have good reasons to travel to Italy by plane, but honestly, this decision make what you write and think fadeing into background. Best regards, A. Viola
Mr Jonathan, we are not saving the planet. We are wanting to save the human species. The planet will evolve and survive in many forms. We as humans are interested in our comfort and survival.
It should never be at the cost of other species, but it is, and that's wrong, which is horrifically and vividly explained in "Eating Animals." It's species-centric on our part, as Foer points out. We're not entitled to rape and pillage just because we can. Animals suffer too and have as much right to be comfortable as we do.
