Synopsis
A gargantuan, mind-altering comedy about the Pursuit of Happiness in America set in an addicts' halfway house and a tennis academy, and featuring the most endearingly screwed-up family to come along in recent fiction, Infinite Jest explores essential questions about what entertainment is and why it has come to so dominate our lives; about how our desire for entertainment affects our need to connect with other people; and about what the pleasures we choose say about who we are. Equal parts philosophical quest and screwball comedy, Infinite Jest bends every rule of fiction without sacrificing for a moment its own entertainment value. It is an exuberant, uniquely American exploration of the passions that make us human - and one of those rare books that renew the idea of what a novel can do., A gargantuan, mind-altering comedy about the Pursuit of Happiness in America Set in an addicts' halfway house and a tennis academy, and featuring the most endearingly screwed-up family to come along in recent fiction, Infinite Jest explores essential questions about what entertainment is and why it has come to so dominate our lives; about how our desire for entertainment affects our need to connect with other people; and about what the pleasures we choose say about who we are.

Item description from the seller
Seller feedback (1,862)
- 4***u (828)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseThis Bible came very very fast. I’m glad the seller wrapped it in bubble wrap. The post office is so careless with their handling of packages. This sell wrapped this very well. A knew the Bible was used, but it was in very nice condition for a used book. I think it was even better than the seller described. This is a very expensive Bible and I feel I received great deal on this one.
