Author Dave Eggers and artist Júlia Sard spin a quirky
historical event into a whimsical and tall-ish true tale of
ingenuity. It all started when John “Minnie” Moore built a mine
in Idaho and sold it to Englishman Henry Miller. Then Henry married
a local lass named Annie and built her a mansion. After Henry died
and Annie was hoodwinked – losing all but the mansion – she and
her son took to raising pigs, as some are wont to do. But the town
wanted those pigs out. Who could have guessed that Annie would
remove the whole mansion instead – rolling it away slowly on logs
– while she and her son were still living in it? Narrated with
metafictional flair, make way for history as only Dave Eggers could
stage it.
