The protagonist, also named Jonathan Safran Foer, goes to the Ukraine in search of a woman named Augustine, who saved Foer's grandfather during World War II. Switching between past and present, Foer (the author) gives a history of Trachimbrod and the fate of the people who once occupied the now barren and forgotten town.
