Uneven, unsurprisingly. ( )

Wow this was tedious. Even (god forbid!) DF Wallace was a bit off. I'm sure there are much better mag anthologies out there. ( )

There is no overall theme in this collection; it is simply the best articles published in Might Magazine. If you have read Eggers' Heartbreaking Work..., this is an opportunity to read some of the articles from the failed magazine he writes about without having to backorder issues at http://www.826valencia.org/store/shop_might_mag.html

As with any anthology, there were strong articles and weak ones. Heidi Pollock's article about the ubiquity of faux Caesar Salad, Donnell Alexander's answer to the question "Are Black People Cooler than White People?", and Jason Zengerle's article that should have been called "Michael Moore and Me" are the strong points.

There are also articles by David Foster Wallace, Dave Eggers, R.U. Sirius, Tripp Hartigan, and many others. ( )
