In the days after the storm, he traveled the flooded streets in a secondhand canoe, passing on supplies and helping those he could. A week later, on September 6, 2005, Zeitoun abruptly disappeared. Eggers's riveting nonfiction book, three years in the making, explores Zeitoun's roots in Syria, his marriage to Kathy -- an American who converted to Islam -- and their children, and the surreal atmosphere (in New Orleans and the United States generally) in which what happened to Abdulrahman Zeitoun was possible. Like \u003ci\u003eWhat Is the What\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eZeitoun\u003c\/i\u003e was written in close collaboration with its subjects and involved vast research -- in this case, in the United States, Spain, and Syria.\u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"McSweeneys Books","offers":[{"title":"Zeitoun | Dave Eggers | Hardcover | 9781934781630 | Used: Like New | Back Stacks G 1788986","offer_id":50920890073346,"sku":"1788986","price":24.18,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0609\/3327\/5906\/files\/81Pr3glHIXL.jpg?v=1793377247","url":"https:\/\/boswellsbooks.com\/products\/zeitoun-1","provider":"Boswell's Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
