Heroes Of The Frontier!: a novel - Softcover

Publisher's description. A brilliant new black comedy about modern America. A surreal family road trip through the Alaskan wilderness veers wildly off-course, as one mother and her two young children try to make their way back to the 'right' path - and find a new one along the way. (Penguin)

An unlikely state of the nation novel...The mirror image of Egger's brilliantly dystopian The Circle...[It] acts on the reader like a breath of Alaskan air, cleansing the spirit and lifting the heart (Guardian)

A classic American hymn to what you can discover when you leave everything behind (Daily Mail)

Sharp, funny, unforgettable (The Times)

Eggers is an engaging storyteller, with a sure sense of character and a keen eye for the bizarre (Financial Times)

The phenomenally productive Eggers has talent to spare...Remarkable, illuminating, believable...[It] entertains, often spectacularly (Barbara Kingsolver, New York Times Book Review)

It gleefully defies classification but, in returning again and again to the complex, overpowering love between guardian and child, feels like classic Eggers (The Times)

A softer, hipper version of Cormac McCarthy's The Road...Eggers' winning streak continues. (i)
