Oh, Christ. There is an online book club for reading Infinite Jest this summer. Everyone’s doing it. They started last week.
At some point in my life I want to read this book again, but lately I’ve been reading lots of politics and history and other stuff, so… not now.
But I feel like I’m missing out.
Shortly after DFW died last fall I reminisced about my first time reading the book.
I’ve had a hold on it at my local library for months now. It must be pretty popular if even people in Ossining are reading it.
I’ve never read any DFW at all, surprisingly, so I just bought Infinite Jest on the Kindle.
