A review by turingtested
You Shall Know Our Velocity! by Dave Eggers

3.0

I can see flashes of Dave Eggers writing style here, but it seems like he didn't quite have enough figured out writing-craft-wise to carry this particular story off. I will say that for a story with a similar idea, of someone trying to understand different cultures, and getting lost in it, A Hologram for the King is MUCH better.
