What Is the What
by Dave Eggers
I first read about this book on Rosie O’Donnell’s website. It is the autobiography of Valentino Achak Deng, one of the lost boys of Sudan. It is called a fictionalized memoir. At times the book was difficult to read, but I am glad that I stuck with it. It took me a long time to read it, but this was the also the time when I started working again and had less time for reading. I learned so much about a series of events I had heard and read of, but really knew nothing about. Valentino says, “God has a problem with me” and he (and others like him) have surely suffered and endured so much more than anyone I know.
