Title: Wow-Someone too shallow for even The Real World
Product review: Hard to believe but we read in Eggers "AHWOSG" that he was deemed not worthy of even The Real World-the benchmark of acceptance in his crass generation. The remainder of his book goes on to prove how smart the producers of the show really were. Nowhere do we get a true thought or feeling from this hackneyed author. Instead we get a series of tricks designed to cover his serious literary flaws. He can't properly recreate a scene so he stops trying halfway through to tell you that he has no idea what he's doing-long after the reader has already concluded as much for himself; he has no sense of subtlety so he comes right out and screams his point at the reader, hoping that you'll admire the volume. It's sad when this is the best we can do.Question: If you went to a restaurant and the chef came out and announced that everything after the appetizer was going to be disapointing, would that make the food taste any better? Apparently Eggers thinks so.
