Dave Eggers often mixes his own factual experiences with elements of fiction in his nonfiction work, like in "Zeitoun" and his memoir "A Hearbreaking Work of Staggering Genious." In fact, in the part prefacing this memoir, Eggers writes "Pretend this is fiction"beat and postmodern style. Many postmodernist writers use dark humor, honesty, irony, and a general questioning of their current world. Eggers likes to tell very current stories with issues facing his time and the current generations, whether it is about poverty (How We Are Hungry) or Hurricane Katrina (Zeitoun).
