“Shark Heart is a devastating exploration of change and freedom and womanhood and it just absolutely gutted me. Habeck had me contemplating very seriously if I could stay with my partner if he, too, turned into a great white shark. It's hard to make your reader relate to such an absurd scenario, but at the end of the day pain is pain. And Wren's pain is woven so deeply into every word. This book is wonderful and weird and so, so heartbreaking all at once. ”

“Listening to the dulcet tones of Elizabeth Acevedo as she reads this book is an experience everyone should have. I felt completely enveloped by this story. A touching mix of family dynamics, culture and memory. I highly recommend. ”

“You will have a hard time finding a more joyous listening experience this summer than indulging in Ethan Hawke's inspired performance of Dave Egger's touching new novel, The Eyes and the Impossible. Told from the point of view of a wild dog in an urban park, this story of friendship is truly a story that readers and listeners of all ages will delight in. ”
