Publisher Description
In this exuberantly praised book - a collection of seven pieces on subjects ranging from television to tennis, from the Illinois State Fair to the films of David Lynch, from postmodern literary theory to the supposed fun of traveling aboard a Caribbean luxury cruiseliner - David Foster Wallace brings to nonfiction the same curiosity, hilarity, and exhilarating verbal facility that has delighted readers of his fiction, including the bestselling Infinite Jest.
Customer Reviews
Fantastic Writing, Terrible Audiobook
This is the worst audiobook experience I’ve had. I honestly think this is the narrators first time seeing the text. He pauses randomly, speaks in tones that do not match the themes, and totally misses the mark on the humor and complexity Wallace writes with.
