“Compelling, hard-boiled and arresting” – The Parade by Dave Eggers

"It's all immensely readable, by which we mean to say that the sentences are short and straightforward, unflorid you might say, and the situations are easy to grasp (two men building a road in a foreign country, two men forced to work together without quite getting along), and yet Eggers is doing something complex: commenting on US foreign policy, showing a world we might think we are familiar with from the news but in a more sympathetic light, offering us different perspectives on what some people may regard as the other (as he has been doing for some time now)."
