Se non è vietato è obbligatorio, o: Dell'ottimismo
Solano Beach, California. È il 4 luglio, Independence Day: la campagna elettorale è al suo climax, e la competizione si fa sempre più spietata. Da una parte Stuart Craspedacusta, dall'altra Murray Olongapo. Dietro di loro, le menti pensanti e senza scrupoli che gestiscono le rispettive campagne elettorali: la conturbante, irreprensibile Renette Robinson per Murray, lo spietato Sergei Andropov (e il suo record imbattuto di 32 campagne vinte su 34 organizzate) per Stuart. Chi vincerà questa volta? Fra dibattiti senza fine, strette di mano a rischio sudore, palloncini firmati e subdoli colpi di marketing elettorale, la risposta sta per arrivare dal cielo... Una caustica satira politica firmata da uno dei più brillanti animatori della scena letteraria americana.

Breve ma insidiosissimo. Grazie Dave per questi momenti di malsana lucidità.

A short novel by Dave Eggers, it was easy to get through and not particularly memorable. I liked it's structure, but I found it a little lacking.
