Jonathan Safran Foer's debut novel, 'Everything is Illuminated' won him exceptional reviews and it was named Book of the Year by Jay McInerney and Joyce Carol Oates. Not bad for a twenty-five year old. Now he's back, at the age of 39, with his third novel, 'Here I Am', already a bestseller in the U.S. Gavin Esler meets Jonathan Safran Foer at the Cheltenham Literature Festival to hear about his return to fiction after more than a decade's absence and to discuss the latest novel's themes, including thorny questions about family life, duty and personal happiness, but, above all, about being Jewish.
