Extremely Loud & Incredibly Close

Wow. Just finished with this book.

Every once in a while you run into a gem like this. It's hard to put your finger on why it touches you but it does. All the seemingly random statements, random comments and random thoughts converge into the feeling that it was supposed to convey. And it hits you right in the face. The fear, the anguish, the pain and the sadness. But also the beauty, the joy and the lightheartedness of a young man.

It's all in there. And it's so great.
