Eggers not only writes his story while maintaining the master narrative, he also writes down his thoughts, their patterns and cycles that seem somewhat oddly familar. His combination of honesty, humour and insecurities make this book a compelling read and yet at the same time he somehow manages to raise more questions than awnsers!

Think Ikea flat packaged ready to assemble furniture with a couple of extra screws thrown in for good measure! Yet unlike Ikea flat packaged ready to assemble furniture - this book comes with an instruction manaul that makes logical sense without the need for domestic unrest!

The title makes a statement, 12 simple words in two phrases on the inside of the front cover that sum the book up perfectly. If you get a chance, take a look - those extra screws that you thought were deliberately thrown in for good measure or agnst, they serve a purpose after all!

Do yourself a favour:

If you have read it - Read it again!

If you haven't read it - Beg, Borrow or Buy a copy - just read it!
