David Foster Wallace made an art of taking readers into places no other writer even gets near. In his exuberantly acclaimed collection, BRIEF INTERVIEWS WITH HIDEOUS MEN, he combined hilarity and an escalating disquiet in stories that astonish, entertain, and expand our ideas of the pleasures that fiction can afford.

Contains spoilers

incredibly poetic and rich prose, all the while remaining witty and selfaware. reading the first part of adult world (i) i wanted to have a husband; reading adult world (ii) made me want to write. church not made with hands was so stunning and tis-stan was hilarous, just as on his deathbed

Brilliant writing that attempts to push the boundaries of fiction while providing depressing/hilarious insights into the human condition.
