The Broom of the System
A visionary, a craftsman, a comedian and as serious as it is possible to be without accidentally writing a religious text. He can do anything with a piece of prose, and it is a humbling experience to see him go to work on what has passed up till now as "modern fiction". He's so modern he's in a different time-space continuum from the rest of us. Goddamn him' <BR>Zadie Smith<BR><BR>The mysterious disappearance of her great- grandmother and twenty-five other elderly inmates from a Shaker Heights nursing home has left Lenore Stonecipher Beadsman emotionally stranded on the edge of the Great Ohio Desert. But that is simply one problem of many for the hapless switchboard operator, seriously compounded by her ongoing affair with boss Rick Vigorous; the TV stardom of her talking cockatiel, Vlad the Impaler; and other minor catastrophes that threaten to elevate Lenore's search for love and self-detemination to new heights of spasmodic weirdness.

Unendlicher Spaß
'¿Alles und noch mehr¿ könnte eine Beschreibung dieses Romans sein.' (Don DeLillo)Irgendwann in naher Zukunft machen sich die Insassen des Entziehungsheims Ennet-House und Studenten der Enfield Tennis Academy auf die Suche nach einer Kopie von 'Unendlicher Spaß', einem Film, der angeblich so unterhaltsam ist, dass der berauschte Zuschauer am Ende verhungert und verdurstet. Nicht allein der schiere Umfang, sondern vor allem die Sprachmächtigkeit, die ungeheure Themenvielfalt, die treffsichere Gesellschaftskritik, die scharfe Analyse sowie der Humor machen diesen kurz vor der Jahrtausendwende erschienenen Roman zum Meilenstein der internationalen Gegenwartsliteratur - ungeheuerlich, maßlos, bewusstseinsverändernd.

Consider the Lobster
Do lobsters feel pain? Did Franz Kafka have a sick sense of humour? What is John Updike's deal anyway? And who won the Adult Video News' Female Performer of the Year Award the same year Gwyneth Paltrow won her Oscar? David Foster Wallace answers these questions and more in his new book of hilarious non-fiction. <BR> For this collection, David Foster Wallace immerses himself in the three-ring circus that is the presidential race in order to document one of the most vicious campaigns in recent history. Later he strolls from booth to booth at a lobster festival in Maine and risks life and limb to get to the bottom of the lobster question. Then he wheedles his way into an L.A. radio studio, armed with tubs of chicken, to get the behind-the-scenes view of a conservative talkshow featuring a host with an unnatural penchant for clothing that only looks good on the radio. In what is sure to be a much-talked-about exploration of distinctly modern subjects, one of the sharpest minds of our time delves into some of life's most delicious topics.

Girl with Curious Hair
'A visionary, a craftsman, a comedian... he's in a different time-space continuum from the rest of us. Goddam him' Zadie Smith, Guardian<BR><BR>'David Foster Wallace turns the short story upside down and inside out, making the adjectives ''inventive'', ''unique'' and ''original'' seem blasé' T.

Il tennis come esperienza religiosa
Negli anni della giovinezza e ben prima di diventare il più grande innovatore della letteratura americana contemporanea, David Foster Wallace si è a lungo dedicato al tennis, entrando nelle classifiche regionali e sfiorando la fama che ha saputo costruirsi altrove, e con ben altri esiti. Il tennis è rimasta una delle sue grandi passioni, tradotta nelle pagine di "Infinite Jest" e "Tennis, TV, trigonometria e tornado". Ma soprattutto in due saggi, qui raccolti insieme per la prima volta, e dedicati rispettivamente a Roger Federer e a un'epica edizione degli U.S. Open. Ma anche a mille altre cose: lo scontro omerico tra il talento e la forza bruta, tra la bellezza apollinea di una volée perfetta e gli interessi economici "sporchi" che ruotano intorno a ogni sport. Il tutto, nella lingua immaginifica e inimitabile che i fan di David Foster Wallace hanno imparato da tempo a conoscere e amare.
