'Heartbreaking? Certainly. Staggering? Yes I'd say so. And if genius is capturing the universal in a fresh and memorable way call it that too' Anthony Quinn Sunday Times 'Is this how all orphans would speak - I am at once pitiful and monstrous I know - if they had Dave Eggers's prodigious linguistic gifts? For he does write wonderfully and this is an extremely impressive debut' John Banville Irish Times 'A virtuosic piece of writing a big daring manic-depressive stew of a book that noisily announces the debut of a talented - yes staggeringly talented - new writer' - Michiko Kakutani New York Times 'Exhilarating . . . Profoundly moving occasionally angry and often hilarious . . . A Heartbreaking Work of Staggering Genius is finally a finite book of jest which is why it succeeds so brilliantly' - New York Times Book Review 'What is really shocking and exciting is the book's sheer rage. AHWOSG is truly ferocious like any work of genius. Eggers - self-reliant transcendent expansive - is Emerson's ideal Young American. [The book] does itself justice: it is a settling of accounts. And it is almost too good to be believed' - London Review of Books 'A hilarious book . . . In it literary gamesmanship and self-consciousness are trained on life's most unendurable experience used to examine a memory too scorching to stare at as one views an eclipse by projecting sunlight onto paper through a pinhole' - Time 'Eggers evokes the terrible beauty of youth like a young Bob Dylan frothing with furious anger . . . He takes us close shows us as much as he can bear . . . His book is a comic and moving witness that transcends and transgresses formal boundaries' - Washington Post
