Reviews
"Mr. Eggers uses a new, pared down, Hemingwayesque voice to recount his story... he demonstrates in Hologram that he is master of this more old-fashioned approach as much as he was a pioneering innovator with A Heartbreaking Work of Staggering Genius ....[This] sad-funny-dreamlike story unfolds to become an allegory about the frustrations of middle-class America, about the woes unemployed workers and sidelined entrepreneurs have experienced in a newly globalized world in which jobs are being outsourced abroad.... A comic but deeply affecting tale about one man's travails that also provides a bright, digital snapshot of our times." --Michiko Kakutani, The New York Times

Synopsis
In a rising Saudi Arabian city, far from weary, recession-scarred America, a struggling businessman pursues a last-ditch attempt to stave off foreclosure, pay his daughter's college tuition, and finally do something great. In A Hologram for the King , Dave Eggers takes us around the world to show how one man fights to hold himself and his splintering family together in the face of the global economy's gale-force winds. This taut, richly layered, and elegiac novel is a powerful evocation of our contemporary moment -- and a moving story of how we got here., In a rising Saudi Arabian city, far from weary, recession-scarred America, a struggling businessman pursues a last-ditch attempt to stave off foreclosure, pay his daughter's college tuition, and finally do something great.

    Immediate shipping!  This excellent book was carefully wrapped in a Saran type plastic material for moisture protection.  The book was then placed in a strong, appropriately sized cardboard box for safe, secure mailing.  It arrived in perfect condition, exactly as depicted and described.  A great price for this edition.  The entire transaction was smooth and professional.  I would definitely purchase from this true five star plus seller again.  Thank you!

    Impeccable. Absolutely impeccable! What a bookseller! As a student, I find this seller a godsend. Many old books, but books well cared for! It’s certainly evident they know how to care for books and have much experience when it comes to helping the world at large find life changing books! What help for the soul! The shipping and handling and the packaging is always professionally done. The items have practically always been nicer than described. So the value is great! I am exceedingly pleased!

    Book arrived fast. It was packaged in a way to prevent damage because it is an antique book. The value was good for what was received and matched the description. Will buy from seller again Thanks
