Happy birthday, Jonathan Safran Foer! May your day be as delightfully quirky and profoundly insightful as your novels. From "Everything Is Illuminated" to "Extremely Loud & Incredibly Close," you've illuminated our bookshelves with humor, heartache, and unforgettable characters—making us laugh even while tugging at our heartstrings.

Your recent works continue to captivate readers worldwide, proving once again that you're not just a novelist but a literary magician who turns ordinary words into extraordinary adventures. Here's hoping this year brings you plenty of inspiration—and perhaps fewer existential crises over punctuation marks!

Cheers to another chapter filled with wit and wonder!
