As editor of McSweeney's ('America's most interesting publication' in the words of Time Out), Dave Eggers has been partly responsible for a rejuvenation of short fiction in the USA. At the same time he has also developed his own unique, funny, endlessly inventive take on the short story form.How We Are Hungry collects the best of his recent (long) short fiction, none published before in the UK. It is the perfect companion not only to his other books but to the (very short) short stories he has been writing weekly for the Guardian magazine.
Beautiful little bundle of stories; this was read at the right time of my life.
