Bookseller recommendation
“This is a quiet and beautiful little story of family, nature, and how we are remembered. If you need something uplifting to brighten your afternoon or send you peacefully to sleep, The Museum of Rain is a gem. As a bonus, the audiobook narrated by Jeff Daniels is wonderfully performed.”
— Kaley • Quail Ridge Books
Bookseller recommendation
“Sharing a short drive with Jeff Daniels reading a Dave Eggers story is the loveliest start to a day. In a sparse, poignant narrative of a man leading his grand nieces and nephews on a hike on California's Central Coast, Eggers reminds us of the satisfaction of introducing the next generation to the wonders of life. I thought about this gentle story for days.”
— Cheryl • Book House of Stuyvesant Plaza
Summary
Oisín Mahoney is an American Army vet in his 70s who is asked to lead a group of young grand-nieces and grand-nephews on a walk through the hills of California’s Central Coast. Walking toward a setting sun, their destination is a place called The Museum of Rain, which may or may not still exist, and whose origin and meaning are elusive to all. In one of his most elegiac stories, Eggers gives us a beautiful testament to family, memory, and what we leave behind.
