"You Shall Know Our Velocity" by Dave Eggers - Salon |
 | | All I know is, if a book of mine ever got a paperback sale of $1.4 million and a few million more for the movie rights, I wouldn't be bellyaching about the way the press covered it, as Eggers so famously does. |
 | | Will Chmlielewski, the hero and narrator of "You Shall Know Our Velocity," is seeking relief for his head, which, on the inside, has been badly affected by the death of a friend and, on the outside, has been beaten to a pulp by a band of toughs. |
 | | The plot of "You Shall Know Our Velocity" is best recounted swiftly, since it hinges on motion and speed. |
