   The SALON Interview DAVID FOSTER wallace david foster Wallace's lowkey, bookish appearance flatly contradicts the unshaven, bandanna-capped image advanced by his publicity photos.  
   http://www.salonmagazine.com/09/features/wallace1.html
   
   Extractions: By LAURA MILLER Illustration by Harry Aung D avid Foster Wallace's low-key, bookish appearance flatly contradicts the unshaven, bandanna-capped image advanced by his publicity photos. But then, even a hipster novelist would have to be a serious, disciplined writer to produce a 1,079-page book in three years. "Infinite Jest," Wallace's mammoth second novel, juxtaposes life in an elite tennis academy with the struggles of the residents of a nearby halfway house, all against a near-future background in which the U.S., Canada and Mexico have merged, Northern New England has become a vast toxic waste dump and everything from private automobiles to the very years themselves are sponsored by corporate advertisers. Slangy, ambitious and occasionally over-enamored with the prodigious intellect of its author, "Infinite Jest" nevertheless has enough solid emotional ballast to keep it from capsizing. And there's something rare and exhilarating about a contemporary author who aims to capture the spirit of his age. The 34-year-old Wallace, who teaches at Illinois State University in Bloomington-Normal and exhibits the careful modesty of a recovering smart aleck, discussed American life on the verge of the millennium, the pervasive influence of pop culture, the role of fiction writers in an entertainment-saturated society, teaching literature to freshmen and his own maddening, inspired creation during a recent reading tour for "Infinite Jest."

   David Foster Wallace Reads. Fans Swoon. Having read the book is probably a requirementfor this to make any sense. Valerie Stivers David Foster Wallace  
   http://www.stim.com/Stim-x/0596May/Verbal/dfwread.html
   
   Extractions: a) bit off more than it could chew b) didn't realize Wallace's popularity OR c) wanted to be cool by having 3/4 of the people who showed up left frustrated on the stairs and street outside. People started arriving two hours ahead of time and the author himself had a hard time getting in. After the reading, Wallace was mobbed with fans holding out brand new copies of Infinite Jest to be signed. I overheard one woman tell the author she had written to him before, and he never replied. Then she asked him to sign her copy, ''To Spanky Pants." Wallace did. I asked the following questions out of my own obsessed curiosity. I'm sure they'll also be of interest to Spanky Pants and her ilk. Having read the book is probably a requirement for this to make any sense.

   Extractions: A Supposedly Fun Thing I'll Never Do Again (Paperback (trade)) "Mr. Wallace's distinctive and infectious style, an acrobatic cartwheeling between high intellectual discourse and vernacular insouciance, makes him tremendously entertaining to read, whatever his subject." -Laura Miller, New York Times Book Review "A heady, often hilarious tour of American diversions....A remarkably talented, fluid, and arresting young voice." -Alex Abramovich, Entertainment Weekly "He's the real thing....Beneath the fun and the verbal high jinks, there is a passionate and deeply serious writer at work." -Brigitte Frase, San Francisco Chronicle "As funny and brilliant as any nonfiction book in recent memory." -John Glassie, Time Out New York Brief Interviews with Hideous Men (Paperback (trade)) "A supersonic delight, a full-scale harassment of the short story form.... David Foster Wallace is one badass fiction writer."

    Rezension der ersten deutschen Veröffentlichung des amerikanischen Kultautors.  
    http://www.u-lit.de/rezension/david-foster-wallace.html
    
    Extractions: 254 S. E s mag ja in diesen Monaten so aussehen, als sei u-lit Nick Hornby herausgegebene Sammelband "Speaking with the Angel" , in dem unter anderen Dave Eggers mit einer Geschichte vertreten ist. Eggers ist in den USA ein neuer Star, einer, der Brett Easton Ellis, Douglas Coupland und Michael Chabon aus der Avantgarde in den Mainstream katapultiert hat. S "Girl With Curious Hair", so der Original Titel der vorliegenden Sammlung von Geschichten, ist bereits 1990 in den USA erschienen. Sie zeigt David Foster Wallace als jungen Autor, der sich noch nicht festgelegt hat, der noch auf der Suche ist. Dementsprechend sind die Stories sehr verschieden, was den Tonfall, aber auch die Sujets angeht.

    A longish list of links to pages dealing mostly with Infinite Jest, but with a few general links, as well.Category Arts Literature Authors W wallace, david foster Infinite Jest . By david foster wallace. Reviews, Articles, Miscellany.Published Review. QPB talks to david foster wallace (September, 1996).  
    http://www.smallbytes.net/~bobkat/jesterlist.html
    
    Extractions: Published early in 1996, David Foster Wallace's remarkable novel Infinite Jest quickly acquired a tremendous level of notoriety for its then 33-year-old author. It's an astonishing work, dense and darkly brilliant. This page collects a number of reviews and articles pertaining to the book, the author, and his oeuvre. here Sven Birkerts's review from the February 1996 issue of the Atlantic Monthly was one of the earliest appraisals of Infinite Jest and it created quite a bit of excitement for the novel. Birkerts slings around alot of faux postmodern academic lingo, and the review has an overheated and breathless quality about it, but it is essential reading.

    Extractions: Aus dem Amerikanischen von Marcus Ingendaay. Herausgegeben und mit einem Nachwort von Denis Scheck. Als Kind ist David Foster Wallace in Werbespots aufgetreten. Früh scheint er Sprache und Gestik des Fernseh- und Werbezeitalters registriert zu haben, und dieses Thema hat ihn nicht mehr losgelassen. Er stellt in seinen Stories die schrille Exotik und auch die Einsamkeit der Menschen in einer Mega-TV-Quiz-Show dar oder das verschwommene Realitätsbewusstsein von TV-Promis.
