Privileged youths worship at feet of Eggers

“After watching Dave’s reading, after watching him kick his coat against the lectern, carve out a pair of breasts in the air with his hands, pick at a piece of tape on the stand at least once every five minutes for the duration of the reading…I came away feeling like I knew the guy much more than the other authors I’ve seen this fall,” said Ryan M. Riley ’06.

That's from a Harvard Crimson story (link courtesy Gawker) recounting the Cambridge advent of Gen-Y messiah Dave Eggers. No further comment from me is needed, I think.
