Dave Eggers Press Reviews
Praise for A Hologram for the King:
'Absorbing ...modest and equally satisfying: the writing of a comic but deeply affecting tale about one man's travails that also provides a bright, digital snapshot of our times.' Michiko Kakutani, New York Times
'A fascinating novel.' New Yorker
'A spare but moving elegy for the American century.' Publishers Weekly
'Eggers understands the pressures of American downward-mobility, and in the protagonist of his novel, Alan Clay, has created an Everyman, a post-modern Willy Loman...The novel operates on a grand and global scale, but it also is intimate.' Chicago Tribune
'Completely engrossing.' Fortune
'Eggers can do fiction as well as he likes.' Los Angeles Times
