Résumé : the story of the extraordinary nine year old Oskar Schell, who lives with his mother and her new boyfriend in a flat in Manhattan. What is so special about Oskar is his ability to invent all kinds off stuff, his incredible imagination and his unquenchable thirst for knowledge. He describes himself as an inventor, pacifist, atheist, scientist and adventurer and, besides, speaks French with passion, plays the tambourine and designs and creates jewellery. At first he seems to be a very happy young man, but the truth is that he is incredibly sad and very unhappy. He misses his father, Thomas Schell, who died in the attack on the World Trade Center in 2001.
