You Shall Know Our Velocity

The best-selling author of A Heartbreaking Work of Staggering Genius, Dave Eggers announced himself as a literary force with this striking debut. It is the tale of two friends on a globe-trekking quest-at turns hilarious, frustrating, and heartbreaking-to give away money while grieving a painful loss. "Headlong, heartsick and footsore . Frisbee sentences that sail, spin, hover, circle and come back to the reader like gifts of gravity and grace . Nobody writes better than Dave Eggers about young men ."-New York Times Book Review
