I picked this up because it matched my catalog search for [a:Eula Biss 60913 Eula Biss http://photo.goodreads.com/authors/1227734650p2/60913.jpg]. It turns out that I had already read her essay included in this (“Goodbye to all that”) but I like personal essays so I checked it out. It's a pretty strong collection. I was excited about the essay written by the guy who did volunteer work in the Dominican Republic, and there were a lot of interesting perspectives in here.
