Title: Pace yourself...you'll be sorry when it's over!
Product review: I can't express how much I love this book. The acknowledgements alone were enough to win me over. As much as I hate the cliche I'm about to use, Dave Eggers is wise WAY beyond his years. He mixes the most tragic emotional events with a perfect punch of sarcasm and self deprecation. Overall, the book is impossible to do justice to with a measly "review". So I realize perhaps I'm not being helpful. Sorry. But here are two possibly helpful tidbits: I'm a big fan of David Sedaris, using him every semester in creative nonfiction writing classes, and I think Eggers' book may be the required text next semester; also, I read this book during a three day bout with the new and improved Killer Flu, and though my energy level was that of a banana slug, I could not stop reading. I wish I could induce aphasia and read it fresh.
