San Francisco: McSweeney Publishing, (2002). SIGNED hardcover first edition - Issue No. 8 of McSweeney's Quarterly Concern "features fiction, essays, letters, and interviews that explore the sometimes-fuzzy boundary between fiction and fact. There are some stories in this issue that read like fact but are actually fiction. There are some essays that you will swear must be fiction but are, in fact, completely true. There's an interview with an artist whose paintings look like the work of a time centuries past and an interview with a person who holds fake press conferences. The issue is a hardcover book, with a cover designed by Elizabeth Kairys, and contains over three hundred pages of new writing." SIGNED by Eggers on the title page.
