Come on out to Oakland/Montclair's Great Good Place for Books, where Dave Eggers will speak on his new nonfiction book, Zietoun, on a Syrian-American businessman's effort to survive and help others in New Orleans after Hurricane Katrina. Event is at 6120 La Salle St. at 1pm. Dave Eggers is the author of the Darfur refugee story What is the What, and the bestseller A Heartbreaking Work of Staggering Genius.
