Girl with Curious Hair
ISBN: 9780393313963 / Angielski / Miękka / 1996 / 384 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Girl with Curious Hair is replete with David Foster Wallace's remarkable and unsettling reimaginations of reality. 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.

In the stories that make up Oblivion, David Foster Wallace joins the rawest, most naked humanity with the infinite involutions of self-consciousness--a combination that is dazzlingly, uniquely his.
These are worlds undreamt of by any other mind. Only David Foster Wallace could convey a father's desperate loneliness by way of his son's daydreaming through a teacher's homicidal breakdown ("The Soul Is Not a Smithy"). Or could explore the deepest and most hilarious aspects of creativity by delineating the office politics surrounding a magazine profile of an artist who produces...

Zapomnění
ISBN: 9788087705865 / Czeski / Miękka / 2022 / 508 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Svůj poslední soubor povídek Zapomnění psal David Foster Wallace paralelně s již nedokončeným románem Bledý král. Kniha vyšla roku 2004. Témata osobní identity a možností porozumění i sebeporozumění se ve Wallaceových textech prolínají s nejsoučasnějšími technikami ovlivňování a vnější prezentace a kladou – nevyslovenou, snad i nevyslovitelnou? – otázku, na co jsme vlastně zapomněli.
David Foster Wallace (1962–2008) patřil k nejoriginálnějším anglicky píšícím autorům přelomu tisíciletí. Proslul především románem Nekonečný... Svůj poslední soubor povídek Zapomnění psal David Foster Wallace paralelně s již nedokončeným románem Bledý král. Kniha vyšla roku 2004. ...
