Paul Eggers' excellent new collection of fiction is about displaced people. Aid workers, chess hustlers, and everyone in between find themselves
far from home and trying to cope with new worlds, new cultures, new morés. Eggers' book asks who we are you when we're out of our comfort zone and
hip-deep in another culture? And more importantly, whom do we become?
The Departure Lounge is a smart book about the nature of human identity from the author of Saviors.
