Title: High hopes dashed on the rocks
Product review: This is a frustrating book, to say the least. The forward and the first chapter are stunning pieces of writing, and through the course of the book, Eggers plays with different devices that add some sparkle. But, when all is said and done, the echoes of the echoes of the echoes become tiresome, and you find yourself wandering around in a verbal cul de sac, wondering if you'll ever be allowed to leave. While much of this book srikes a nerve on a personal level, Eggers seems to be trying too hard to become the voice of a generation.
