Eggers, Dave A Heartbreaking Work of Staggering Genius
New York Vintage 2001 0-375-72578-4 / 9780375725784 Paperback Near Fine
Dave Eggers is a terrifically talented writer; don't hold his cleverness ag ainst him. What to make of a book called A Heartbreaking Work of Staggering Genius: Based on a True Story? For starters, there's a good bit of stagge ring genius before you even get to the true story, including a preface, a l ist of "Rules and Suggestions for Enjoyment of This Book," and a 20-page ac knowledgements section complete with special mail-in offer, flow chart of t he book's themes, and a lovely pen-and-ink drawing of a stapler (helpfully labeled "Here is a drawing of a stapler:"). But on to the true story. At the age of 22, Eggers became both an orphan and a "single mother" when his parents died within five months of one another of unrelated cancers. In the ensuing sibling division of labor, Dave is appointed unofficial guardian of his 8-year-old brother, Christopher. The two live together in semi-squalor, decaying food and sports equipment scattered about, while Eggers worries obsessively about child-welfare authorities, molesting babysitters, and his own health. His child-rearing strategy swings between making his brother's upbringing manically fun and performing bizarre developmental experiments on him. (Case in point: his idea of suitable bedtime reading is John Hersey's Hiroshima.)
