Foer lives in Brooklyn's Park Slope, a charming neighborhood filled with historic buildings, parks and cul- tural institutions. It's home to actors Patrick Stewart, Keri Russell, Maggie Gyllenhaal and Laurence Fishburne, writers Paul Auster, Dave Eggers and Pete Hamill, and politicians like Mayor Bill de Blasio and Sen. Chuck Schumer. Foer has a favorite red corduroy chair — "I just park myself there" — in his apartment. This is where the process begins. "It used to be the case that when I wasn't writing well I would look for a new place," he says. Now, though, he'll stay at home, but maybe move from room to room if he needs a bit of a change. What he will not do is lie down. "That's a dangerous thing," he says. "I might fall asleep." He writes his first draft on the com- puter, a place where his imagination is free to jump and spark and flash and dance. "Writing is very open and intuitive," he says, "so I'm not really worried about outcomes." Then comes the second phase — editing — which is, Foer says, almost like a different profession. Writing is "trying to let everything out," while editing is taming the wild, raw ideas. Yet while Foer's imagination is let loose on the computer, editing is old school; he only edits with a pen, on a printed copy of the text. Once the book is done, front and center at stores everywhere, Foer says he doesn't read reviews because there's little to learn from them, though he will listen at times to interpretations because he sometimes finds them interesting. "I like learning the meaning of what I do," he says, "because I don't always really know what I intended." Here I Am takes its title from the Book of Genesis. God tells Abraham to sacrifice his son Isaac, and Abraham responds with an answer that contin- ues to intrigue, astonish and baffle to this day: "Here I am." Foer's Here I Am occurs over four weeks as a couple, Jacob and Julia Bloch, and their three sons, face challenges of their own — both struggles in their lives and crisis in the Middle East in the aftermath of a terrific earthquake. NPR called the novel "dazzling." Time raved "[It] lays bare the interior of a marriage with such intelligence and deep feeling and pitiless clarity, it's impossible to read it and not re-exam- HEALTH AWARENESS DAY Friday, Nov. 4 10 a.m. Dr. Mache Seibel: The Estrogen Window Is estrogen exactly what meno- pausal women need — or a drug that could lead to an increased risk of heart disease and cancer? Dr. Mache Seibel is one of America's leading experts on women's well- ness and menopause. In his groundbreaking new book, he reveals the truth about estrogen therapy. The Estrogen Window is must-reading for women, providing comprehensive information about why estrogen therapy is valuable and when it should be taken. 11:30 a.m. Lisa F. Smith: Girl Walks Out of a Bar: A Memoir Before heading off to work at the international firm where she prac- ticed law, Lisa F. Smith began each morning with a full bottle of wine and three lines of cocaine. This was the star student from a nice, Jewish family? The young woman who was at the top of her class in college and found a job right out of school? In fact, Smith had been an addict for years, drink- ing heavily from the time she was 25 — and no one even suspected. Lisa will present her story with Lisa Kaplan of the Henry Ford Maplegrove Center for Substance Abuse. 1 p.m. Larry Olmsted: Real Food/Fake Food: Why You Don't Know What You're Eating & What You Can Do About It
