Eggers’ New Novel, Serialized

Thanks to Maud for this news:

As reported several weeks ago, Salon is serializing Dave Eggers’ novel-in-progress, which apparently skewers American politics. The first two episodes are posted. I haven’t read them yet.

I haven’t read it yet either, and I’m not sure when I’ll get around to it (I’m still reeling from my deep disappointment with You Shall Know Our Velocity), especially since the topic is politics–a topic on which I’m not sure I need to hear from Eggers. Still, I love the idea of a good old-fashioned serial novel being published online.

Update
Return of the Reluctant has the goods on Eggers’ rough draft for the first installment of the serial.
