Girl with Curious Hair (el. knyga) (skaityta knyga) | knygos.lt

Aprašymas

A collection of stories containing remarkable, hilarious, and unsettling reimaginations of reality from the author of Infinite Jest.

David Foster Wallace was one of the most prodigiously talented and original young writers in America, and Girl with Curious Hair displays the full range of his gifts. From the eerily real, almost holographic evocations of historical figures like Lyndon Johnson and overtelevised game-show hosts and late-night comedians, to the title story, where terminal punk nihilism meets Young Republicanism, Wallace renders the incredible comprehensible, the bizarre normal, the absurd hilarious, the familiar strange.

"These stories say something serious and sincere about the world that the rest of us have to live in." -Washington Post Book World

"A collection of stories as varied in length and theme as they are imaginative, and downright bizarre as any collection by one author has a right to be." -San Francisco Chronicle
