Contains some of the best essays I have ever read. David Foster Wallace was such a genius and an immensely entertaining and witty writer (especially in non-fiction). Bro could write about literally anything, whether it be Kafka, dictionaries, politicians, porn conventions etc, and make it interesting, insightful and at the same time funny af. Would be a 5 stars if “up Simba” wasn’t so fucking long.
