《特别响，非常近》是关乎9·11创伤之佳作，亦是关于家庭、亲情与成长之作品。小说以9·11事件为背景，弗尔却旨在关注九岁男童奥斯卡在骤失父亲的巨大创伤后如何重建亲情，重新与他人沟通，以走出创伤之阴影。至真至纯之亲情不仅消融奥斯卡的创伤，而且也使他与家人更近了；重建与他人之联系则使他们相互间之关系更近，既使奥斯卡重拾信心，又使他们共度不幸或危机所带来之创伤；最终，奥斯卡重构生活图景，从创伤中成长而获新生———成为一个具有悲悯情怀的人。这正是弗尔在后9·11时代对生命与死亡及其意义所进行的哲思。

Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close is a novel about the 9/11 trauma,and about family,kinship and growth as well.Although it is set in the 9/11 Terrorist Attack,J.S.Foer aims to show how Oscar,a nine-year old boy,rebuild family affection and re-communicate with others to walk out of the shadow of trau-ma after the trauma of his father′s sudden death.Pure affection melts Oscar′s trauma,and makes him closer to his family.Re-contact with others brings them closer to each other,makes Oscar regain confidence,and Os-car and others overcome the trauma of their misfortunes or crises.In the end, Oscar reconstructs his life to grow up out of his trauma to be a new person—one with compassion and mercy.All of which is exactly what J.S.Foer philosophizes about life and death and their significance in the post-9/11 era.
