This book has convinced me that Dave Eggers was born to write other people's stories. He has done justice to Zeitoun's story and made it obvious that his was not a unique case without making the story sensational or romantic. It's not a fun book, but like What Is The What, it's not nearly as depressing as it could have been and shows a personal side of a very public sequence of events. (For further reading about New Orleans I highly recommend Do You Know What it Means to Miss New Orleans? from Chinn Music Press)
