You Shall Know Our Velocity! by Dave Eggers

4.0

This is a great, if at times frustrating, tale of adventure, about two late-twenty-something Americans on an impulsive journey,trying to get around the world in a week. I found myself often frustrated at the ignorance of their plan, their assumptions and ethnocentric views, but I think that may have partially been Dave Eggers' point. Two friends, dealing with a personal tragedy, try to make sense of things, to go on an adventure, in their own way. The story is a hilarious, exasperating, emotional, and ultimately healing journey of growth.
