A SUPPOSEDLY FUN THING I'LL NEVER DO AGAIN: ESSAYS AND ARGUMENTS
David Foster Wallace
(Little, Brown)
All the information you need on this month's coolest book to be able to pretend you've read it and impress people.
WHAT'S IT CALLED?
A Supposedly Fun Thing I'll Never Do Again: Essays and Arguments
WHO WROTE IT?
David Foster Wallace, a young American genius whose finest hour came in 1996 with a magnificent essay in Harper's magazine on why luxury Caribbean cruises are a nightmare if you have either brains or taste.
BUT EVERYONE KNOWS THAT, SURELY.
No, nobody ever writes critically about tourism because the tourist industry buys ads (though not in Harper's any more). No one had ever said in print before that passengers feed like walruses and cruise lines have employees trained specially in the art of cleaning up copious passenger spew when the seas get rough. They're like those speedy ball boys in tennis, apparently. Vomit roadies. And Foster Wallace was the first to note that when fat, rich American tourists go snorkelling, seen from above they look like hundreds of corpses floating face down.

David Foster Wallace: In The Company of Creeps by Lorin Stein 5/3/1999
'It wasn't till I saw the galleys that I noticed
how horrific this stuff was.'
Sunday evening in Normal, Ill., David Foster Wallace and PW are lost somewhere near the Lingerie department of the local K mart, on the lookout for audiocassettes, and Wallace is taking this unforeseen pre-interview delay to air a couple of last-minute reservations about the PW interview process. 'Am I expected to have insight or opinions about the publishing industry?' Wallace freezes mid-aisle, for maybe the third time in two minutes, as if he might bolt for the check-out. 'Because what I know about the publishing industry could be inscribed with a dry Magic Marker on the lip of a Coke bottle.'

Leseprobe

Luxus bis zum Abwinken
David Foster Wallace -
Schrecklich amüsant - aber in Zukunft ohne mich er Auftrag, den das Harper - Magazin David Forster Wallace erteilt ist denkbar simpel: er soll an einer siebentägigen Kreuzfahrt auf dem Luxusdampfer Nadir teilnehmen und darüber berichten. Mit anderen Worten: " Junge, lass dich feudal durch die Karibik schippern und schreib einfach auf, was du gesehen hast. " Es geht los in Fort Lauderdale und dann wird zügig Kurs Richtung Jamaika eingeschlagen. Beinahe sieben Tage blauer Himmel, die ersten beiden Regentage nicht mitgezählt - leichte, unveränderliche Programmänderungen müssen auch die Gäste eines Luxusliners verkraften. " Ich habe erfahren, dass jenseits von Ultra-ultra-ultramarineblau noch eine Steigerung möglich ist, " und " die Sonne selbst schien auf maximale Annehmlichkeit voreingestellt. " Doch schon bald merkt Wallace, dass die ganze Luxusmaschinerie, einmal in Gang gesetzt, zu einem richtigen Stress anwachsen kann. Jede Minute an Bord ist verplant, das Publikum ist mehrheitlich über siebzig Jahre alt und natürlich orientiert sich das Programm-Angebot an diesen Bedürfnissen. Zugegeben, Wallace mit Mitte dreißig passt nicht so recht zur Zielgruppe, und das permanente Bedientwerden hinterlässt bei ihm ein bohrend schlechtes Gewissen. In einer bunten Collage sammelt dieser bemerkenswerte amerikanische Autor, der bereits mit seinem ersten Roman "Kleines Mädchen mit komischen roten Haaren" in Deutschland für Aufsehen sorgte, seine ätzend scharfen Beobachtungen. Der Übersetzer Marcus Ingendaay trifft den Originalton haarscharf. Ein kleiner Mangel, der den Lesefluss stört und lästig unterbricht, sind die vielen, zum Teil sehr langen Fußnoten.

David Foster Wallace's Hideous Men
Mon Tues Wed Thurs Fri
From: Eliza Truitt
Subject: The Horror! The Irony!
Thursday, June 3, 1999, at 7:25 AM PT Seth, I'll take your last comment at face value. I'll even throw it back in your face a little. So what should DFW's next book look like? You don't like cleverness for cleverness's sake (and few people do, though I should admit that I'm an exception). You're bored by his self-consciousness. But what should a clever and self-conscious writer do? Here are my thoughts on the matter (not that you asked). I'd like to see DFW just get over himself. And if he can't genuinely get over himself, I'd like to see him do what most writers do, which is pretend to get over himself. The effect is the same. I'd like to see him write another novel like Broom of the System and Infinite Jest and get back to writing about characters instead of working out his own psychic pain and struggles with religion on the page.

Title: Infinite Jest
Author: David Foster Wallace
Year: 1996
"The twenty page passage on Eschaton, with the Mean Value Theorem footnote, is possibly the best use of mathematics in fiction I've ever seen." (Contributed by "Cossey") "this book has some of the most interesting and complete characters i've seen- in terms of being a great novel of ideas, i don't think that the standard comparisons of Infinite Jest to Gravity's Rainbow etc. are unwarranted- hypercontemporary, in a good way."

http://www.rambles.net/wallace_funnything.html
David Foster Wallace,
A Supposedly Fun Thing
I'll Never Do Again:
All right. So the man can juggle topics. He can talk about the state fair, mathematics and the human condition, all in the same essay and all with style. I'll give him that. I'll even concede that Wallace is brilliant in his own way. The way he looks at things in this book is ... well ... interesting at times. But to call him the most hilarious writer of our generation is overdoing it a little. From the critics to the guy at the bookstore counter, it seems everyone I know is enamoured of A Supposedly Fun Thing I'll Never Do Again . In fact, the bookstore clerk ran out behind me to grab a hardcover copy of it from the sales rack after my purchase (thankfully, on sale for $4.99 at a major retail chain) so that he could have it in a more permanent form. If he'd given me a day or so, I'd have gladly given him mine. Maybe I'm too far removed from his base, which seems to be a midwest twenty-something generation, cynical and analytical simultaneously. His essay on the state fair in Illinois is pretty dead-on from the state fairs I've seen, and he's right, the corn dogs and baton twirlers are the best things about it. Still, I didn't find it funny as much as I found it to be true. For some, I guess this is humor. The title essay comes on the heels of an in-depth essay about David Lynch and expressionism, and another heady piece about a tennis player that discusses freedom and discipline. Needless to say, as a tired reader, I was looking for some humor in the last work, hoping that I hadn't wasted the five bucks the book cost. There were moments mostly in the footnotes where I chuckled. That's about it. His discussion of the tone of the vacuum toilets (something a friend and fan told me to watch for) seemed like a sophomoric attempt at laughs, and just made me race that much faster toward the end.

Infinite Jest is a very big book. It took me nearly a month to get through because of size and my inability to read it fast. Somewhere 300 or so pages in I got hooked and just wanted to know what happened. (or more accurately what had happened). All of the characters were wacky in some way or another, and I doubt I'd want to know many of them (if any) but I did really want to see what happened to them. I wouldn't necessarily recommend reading this one in bed. Even in paperback form, I kept waking up with my neck stiff after having spent a few hour hunched over the book. Unfortunately though, the ending didn't answer quite all of my questions from the beginning, but I won't mention which ones in case you're planning on reading it. kristin buxton kbuxton@kbuxton.com

David Foster Wallace
"Infinite Jest" Edition
Okay. Fine. So I was late. But a lot of people didn’t come at all, and a lot of people who did only came for the pie. Mercenaries. Yeesh. Anyway, the meeting of 5 November opened with this writer’s arrival, leaving little time for the exchange of pre-meeting witticisms. Instead, Catherine “Cellophone” Roberts opened the meeting by turning things over to Ryan “RA stands for ‘Really Awesome’” Morehouse due to RH Kathy’s pie-related absense. Ryan took the opportunity to break the RA wall of silence and inform us that coffee hour would be held in the lounge. Of course, there’s a catch. If we’re going to be there, we’re going to watch the “Safer Sex” lecture by some of the PHCs (Peer Health Educators, for those playing at home, not to be confused with PCH, which stands for Pacific Coast Highway ) whilst chowing on Ryan’s expert goodie confections. Michael “Through and Through” Suh asked Jenny if she had dyed her hair. For the last time, Jenny has not dyed her hair. It changes color automatically depending on temperature and her level of percieved threat. Chameleonic hair. All the kids are doing it. Buffy “All the Games, None of the Quarters” Wajvoda

David Foster Wallace: A Radically Condensed History of Postindustrial Life
From: Brief Interviews with Hideous Men
When they were introduced, he made a witticism, hoping to be liked. She laughed extremely hard, hoping to be liked. Then each drove home alone, staring straight ahead, with the very same twist to their faces. The man who'd introduced them didn't much like either of them, though he acted as if he did, anxious as he was to preserve good relations at all times. One never knew, after all, now did one now did one now did one.
