Reviews)
In Jonathan Safran Foer's book "Everything Is Illuminated," the journey of overcoming sadness is explored through the idea of embracing one's emotions fully. The quote suggests that rather than avoiding or suppressing feelings of sadness, one must engage with and deeply experience them to find healing and understanding.
This approach highlights the importance of confronting difficult emotions as a means of personal growth. By consuming sadness, individuals can process their experiences and ultimately emerge stronger, developing a more profound appreciation for life’s complexities and the joy that can follow sorrow.
