In "Everything Is Illuminated," the main character grapples with the idea of reality versus fiction. Despite recognizing that a central figure in her life is merely a fictional creation, she chooses to have faith in him. This reflects a deeper human tendency to find meaning and connection, even in things that are not real or tangible. Her belief represents hope and the power of imagination in shaping our experiences.
