A Hologram for the King by Dave Eggers

3.0

Clean prose, good storytelling. Not so great story/character building. Extremely one-dimensional protagonist who, despite the self-examination of his faults and misguided but seemingly good intentions, never changes. The shallow storyline (which obviously isn't the focus of Eggers' book) goes nowhere. This would have been okay if the the character had experienced some kind of growth or development.
