| book description |

An instant contemporary classic A finalist for the Pulitzer Prize for General Nonfiction A number one New York Times Bestseller A stunning memoir chronicling profound grief and comic absurdity ‘Heartbreaking? Certainly. Staggering? Yes, I’d say so. And if genius is capturing the universal in a fresh and memorable way, call it that too’ – The Sunday Times Dave Eggers' parents died from cancer within a month of each other when he was twenty-one and his brother, Christopher, was seven. They left the Chicago suburb where they had grown up and moved to San Francisco. Hilarious and deeply heartfelt, this is the story of their life together. ‘Virtuosic’ – The New York Times ‘Prodigious’ – The Irish Times ‘Shocking’ – The London Review of Books ‘Moving’ – The Washington Post
