Synopsis: |
"Visitants" begins at 140 kilometers per hour, with Dave Eggers being driven across the Saudi Arabian desert by a hired driver who looks at him and says "American, boom boom!" Spanning his entire career, there are long, lighthearted and caterwauling adventures in places such as Cuba and Thailand as well as briefer sketches of people he meets in places such as Croatia and Egypt. And there are meditative pieces from South Sudan and Syria that reveal another side to his acclaimed books "What Is the What" and "Zeitoun." Vast in scope, the collection is shot through with a sense of danger and adventure as well as constant wrestling with complex issues of equity and power. |
