Description

In these stories, the author renders the bizarre normal and the absurd hilarious, from the eerily real , almost holographic evocations of historical figures, to overtelevised game-show hosts and late-night comedians. In the title story, punk nihilism meets Young Republicanism.

Reviews

David Foster Wallace turns the short story upside down and inside out, making the adjectives "inventive", "unique" and "original" seem blase. He is quick-blooded and good, and these are very fine stories indeed.
