an oldie, but goodie.
i adore DFW; _infinite jest_ is a book i'd strap to my thigh like a hip-flask to carry with me always, if it weren't so damned bulky! he's kind of a one-hit-wonder for me, though. i mean compared to the the incandescent luminosity of IJ -- tho' _a supposedly funny thing..._ is quite good.
_brief interviews_ has its moments, but it seemed mostly like cast off orin interviews that had been edited out of IJ. still, i wonder what sort of butchery the movie being adapted from _brief interviews_ will make of the book.
