About this listen

In his first novel, Dave Eggers has written a moving and hilarious tale of two friends who fly around the world trying to give away a lot of money and free themselves from a profound loss. It reminds us once again what an important, necessary talent Dave Eggers is.

Two friends go on a week-long trip around the world in an attempt to spend and give away $32,000. The driving narrative is intercut with flashbacks to a recent trauma. Eggers creates a wonderful sense of elastic and unreal time. As with “A Heartbreaking Work of Staggering Genius”, there’s a sometimes stressful forward motion, of time running out and urgency. The narration by Dion Graham is good at the different voices and mostly held my attention.

Trauma, travel, time, and money
