Critical Outakes: Dave Eggers
Q : It seems like one of the overarching themes of your work, especially your recent work , is generosity. Would this have been such a passion for you if your first book hadn't been so sucessful?
Eggers : It would have been in a different way. I wasn't able to do much in the way of acting on volunteering when I was raising [my brother] Toph, there wasn't time. When he was in his later years in high school, that was around the same time that the book came out, and so at the same time that I had more time, suddenly there was money, too, that I didn't expect or know what to do with and it threw me off guard. You know, early on, with my family, when [ Heartbreaking Work of Staggering Genius] was coming out, when we realized there would be some money from it, we did all agree that any run off from it if there was money we didn't know what to do with our first commitment was cancer research. So we donated the first chunks of money to that and to hospice organizations around the country.

the selected, annotated outbox of dave eggers 09.05.2005, 1:52 PM
Email killed the practice of letter-writing so suddenly that we haven't a chance to think about the consequences. The Times Book Review ran an essay this weekend on the problem this poses for literary historians, biographers and archivists, who long have relied on collected letters and papers to fill in the gaps between a writer's published work. In the same review, the Times covers a new biography of the legendary critic Edmund Wilson largely based on his correspondences, and last week covered a new collection of the letters of poet James Wright. Letters are often treated as literature in themselves.
But a crop of writers is working now whose papers are not in order. The email is rotting away on the network, unorganized, not backed-up, and, to a great extent, simply being lost for good. I actually mused about this in a post
There isn't necessarily anything less rich about email correspondence. It excels at capturing a vibrant volley of words with great immediacy, whereas paper letters permit deeper communiques, fewer and father between. But in some cases, these characterizations do not hold up. With reliable postal service, letters can fly back and forth quite rapidly. And just because an email suddenly appears in your box does not mean that it will be immediately read, let alone replied to. Sometimes we write long email letters, expecting that the receiver is busy and will take time to reply. These differences, true and false, are worth evaluating.

50. The Dave Eggers Show - BCM - Spring 2002
dave eggers, the cult of irony, and a heartwarming act of swaggering geniality.
http://www.bc.edu/publications/bcm/spring_2002/lindenlane.html
It's Valentine's Day night, that bastion of Hallmark sweethearts and suburban roses, and Gasson 100 is crammed with the young. Their abs are visible and flat, their nose rings shine, they wear hip orange knit caps with pompoms utterly ridiculous on anybody over 25, and they travel in packsnone of this paired-off stuff. Ten minutes late, and to frantic ap- plause, author Dave Eggers lopes into the room, taller than you'd think from the jacket photo on his wildly popular book, A Heartbreaking Work of Staggering Genius (2000), and definitely buff, in jeans and a brown sweater over a drooping brown T-shirt, wearing scuffed brown oxfords spattered with white paint, a subtle shadow on his jaw.
Boyish and shy, he hangs his curly-mopped head, then drinks from a bottle of water. Can he bethis celebrity of almost two yearsself-conscious? Not in that postmodern self-conscious way (where you're conscious of being self-conscious and what other way is there to be?) but the way one of us would feel if we wrote a book about the time of our deepest anguish and then had to face our readers? "It's unusually cold, isn't it?" he asks the crowd.
"I didn't bring a coat." Pause. "Anyone have a coat?" A Dickens orphan with a gamin's charm, Dave Eggers knows how to work a room.

The Arts/Cultural Desk Ambivalent Writer Turns His Memoir Upside Down; Denouncing Profits and Publishers While Profiting From Publication By DAVID D. KIRKPATRICK Most first-time authors whose books become best sellers are simply delighted, but not Dave Eggers. Just weeks before the paperback's publication yesterday, he half seriously asked his editors at Vintage Books if they could call the whole thing off. In the end, however, largely at his behest, Vintage is releasing the paperback with an extraordinary combination of attention-getting twists: a new appendix correcting and updating the original, an upside-down back cover creating a book that seems to open from either end, and three different versions, each with its own cover illustration.

New visitors: Returning members: reviews editor book review content by: editor dave eggers how we are hungry (hamish hamilton) Short sharp shocks. With a superb, landscape-altering memoir and a noteworthy, if flawed, novel to his name (as well as editorship of the literary journal McSweeney’s and the creation of the non-profit educational programme 826 Valencia), Dave Eggers now weighs in with a collection of short stories written over the past four years. Perhaps predictably, given Eggers’ combination of huge talent and a predilection for doing 50 things at once, How We Are Hungry freely mixes brilliance and mediocrity. At times these two qualities jostle for supremacy on a line-by-line basis, acute observations stumbling over redundancies in such a manner as to suggest certain stories were written while the author was simultaneously fielding important calls, spinning plates and getting into a wetsuit. Elsewhere, however, the achingly bittersweet meditation on friendship and despair that is Climbing To The Window, Pretending To Dance, and the powerfully resonant, Hemingway-esque Up The Mountain Coming Down Slowly - Eggers’ finest piece of fiction to date - are little less than perfect.

Mr. Magazine
The official blog of Mr. Magazine (TM) Samir A. Husni An evening to remember: Custom Publishing 4th Annual Pearl Awards
November 12, 2007
I met Dave Eggers for the first time in 1994 right after he published Might magazine which I have selected in that year as one of the most notable launches of 1994. I was so impressed (and still is) by the magazine that folded after a year or so for lack of funding. Dave tried his best to secure funding for the magazine, including sending a letter to John Mack Carter at Hearst (who was publishing my Guide at that year) asking for Hearst to be involved with Might. The response from John was negative and Dave, in a very smart move, published the letter from John in Might.
The Progressive
Dave is interviewed in depth about his books, organizations and magazines. One paragraph caught my attention from that interview. It was the one dealing with Might, and The Believer . Nina Siegal asked him whether he fears the corrupting influence of the mass market. Here is part of his answer (which works also as a great response to all the naysayers who continue to spread the word that no one can start a magazine in this day and age):
