This is the book that made me fall in love with Dave Eggers; trying now to tear through everything else he's written/produced/etc. I was also quite taken with Deb Olin Unferth's rough style; I'd never even heard of her previously, but read through her contribution ravenously. Sarah Manguso, I have to say, is who places my rating at 4 rather 5 stars. Her micro-fiction felt too autobiographical to me—I could see the room where she was writing, could feel her trying to write her way out of boredom...meh. Underwhelmed, I suppose you could say.
