A Heartbreaking Work of Staggering Genius by Dave Eggers

The following post is taken directly from one of my hand-printed Reader's Journal. I will be sharing these reflections each week on the Rivera Runs Through It blog. The date at the end of each post is the date of the original writing, which is typically the date I completed the book. The reflections are short, but represent my initial reactions to a book, a brief summary of the book or the questions it raised for me at the time. I hope you enjoy this segment in my blog and feel free to comment on what you read here.

A Heartbreaking Work of Staggering Genius by Dave Eggers

I bought this book merely because I was amused by the title, I thought, "Is this guy serious?!" It ends up that, for the most part, he is not. It seems that Mr. Eggers has that same kind of sarcastic sense of humor that I tend to have in my most hyper of moods. This was the first memoir I have read, and unless anyone writes in this same style, probably the last.

Special note: I have read other memoirs after this book and enjoyed them!
