About this product

Product Information

These widely acclaimed essays from the author of Infinite Jest -- on television, tennis, cruise ships, and more -- established David Foster Wallace as one of the preeminent essayists of his generation. 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 .

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!

  • A Stylistic Social Satyr

    David Foster Wallace is well known in the academic world for his unique style and deep analysis of everyday events and special vacations alike. David Foster Wallace has been called "one of the most influential and innovative writers of the last 20 years" by New York Times' editor, David Ulin. He is best known for his grand novel, "Infinite Jest," but for a first-time David Foster Wallace reader, I suggest the shorter essays found in "A Supposedly Fun Thing I'll Never Do Again" (so that said reader might be able to become acquainted with DFW's unique style before entering into a 1000+ page commitment). Wallace's best work is in his critique of modern society. Take a look inside yourself and tear yourself a new one, DFW will help out, ...
