Title: Insight into a much younger mind
Product review: I am more than three times the age of Dave Eggers when his book opens and it was fascinating and moving to see his young mind at work. I am acquainted with death and was greatly moved. I imagine those who disliked the book are closer to Dave's age and so less tolerant of a contemporary; just as I would be with the work of another senior citizen describing the world I live in. My point is that I gave him some slack and wasn't a bit bored by the Real World episode.That part, near the end, when he returns to Chicago, visits the funeral home and what followed rang so true. The description of the frisbee game with Toph caught me with its athletic grace.I have recommended this book to all my friends. I wish I could go to New York in May, 2001 when he is speaking at the New Yorker celebration and shake his hand.
