Now I am certainly in an order that is off from reality. But here is Dave Eggers book of Short Stories. And it is unlikely that I really read two books of short stories back to back, but I can’t seem to figure out what I read in between. So, I am just gonna post this up here anyway.

I liked this book. I realize a lot of people won’t. Eggers has a very experiemental feel, especially in this book, some stories being only a page, some stories going on for what seems like half the book: with talking horses and clouds and characters from his other novels. If you are a dedicated Dave Eggers reader you will enjoy this thoroughly, if you are just starting to read him, you might as well start with A Heartbreaking Work of Staggering Genius (I wish I could make this a link but no one has posted it up here yet) which will be a lot easier to get in to.

I will say there was a particular story in this book that found me in the right time and place (as Eggers tends to do to me) and so I am biased into fond memories of this collection of stories.
