Dave Eggers What is the What
Friday, November 30, 7:00PM
This testament to the triumph of hope over experience, human resilience over tragedy and disaster, is the story of Valentino Achak Deng, a refugee from the Sudanese civil war. Written by National Book Critics Circle Award Finalist Dave Eggers, this is an "emblematic saga of modernity-of the search for home and self in a world of unending upheaval" (Publishers Weekly). The author will present a slideshow of his most recent trip to the Sudan and will introduce us to one of Sudan's young "lost boys," Abraham Awolich. Dave will then sign copies of his books at this special Friday Night event.
