Don DeLillo called Infinite Jest a three-stage rocket to the future, a work equal to the huge, babbling spin-out sweep of contemporary life, while Time Magazine included Infinite Jest on its list of 100 Greatest Novels published between 1923-2006. David Foster Wallace's Infinite Jest: A Reader's Guide was the first book to be published on the novel and is a key reference for those who wish to explore further. Infinite Jest has become an exemplar for difficulty in contemporary Fictionits 1,079 pages full of verbal invention, oblique narration, and a scattered, nonlinear, chronology. In this comprehensively revised second edition, Burn maps Wallaces influence on contemporary American fiction, outlines Wallaces poetics, and provides a full-length study of the novel, drawing out the most important themes and ideas, before surveying Wallaces post-Infinite Jest output, including The Pale King."--Ebook Library Public metadata view summary |
