Dave Eggers - Zeitoun

































This is Dave Eggers' second "faction" effort, which followed the success of the awareness-raising What is the What? Which was equally as awesome. This follows Abdulrahman and Kathy Zeitoun's family through the brunt of Hurricane Katrina, and into the aftermath. It gets a little bit disgusting and shocking when you realise what they were put through. Oh America...
1.But without a moon men could make their own...

2.They would whisper over the sea, telling jokes and talking about women and girls as they watched the fish rise and spin beneath them.

3.Then she broke into a private smile...

4.The various doubts of the imams were comforting, and drew her closer.

5.Even the most amateur propagandist could conjure sinister implications.
