Last night, the audience crowded the synagogue of B’nai Emunah for Book Smart Tulsa’s evening with Jonathan Safran Foer, author of Everything is Illuminated. Foer offered a lucid and compelling argument for going vegetarian, using stories and research from his recent book Eating Animals.

About the pic: as an homage to Eddie Chuculate’s “foot portrait,” photographer Michael Cooper snapped this shot of Foer’s feet while he spoke from the podium. Look for our upcoming interview with Foer in the October issue of This Land.
