Things the Grandchildren Should Know
How does one young man survive the deaths of his entire family and manage to make something of his life? Mark Oliver Everett´s upbringing was ´ridiculous, sometimes tragic and always unsteady´. The insecure son of a misenderstood genius of quantum mechanics, he somehow survived this and ensuing tragedies, channelling his experiences into his critically acclaimed music with the Eels. Told with surprising candour, his memoir is an inspiring and remarkable story, full of hope, humour and wry wisdom.
