Girl with Curious Hair
ISBN: 9780393313963 / Angielski / Miękka / 1996 / 384 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Girl with Curious Hair is replete with David Foster Wallace's remarkable and unsettling reimaginations of reality.

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. ...

Krátké rozhovory s odpornými muži
ISBN: 9788087705650 / Czeski / Miękka / 2018 / 408 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. V Krátkých rozhovorech s odpornými muži (1999) podává David Foster Wallace zprávu o lidských bytostech zasažených úzkostí, nejistotou a osamoceností.
Formálně rozmanitý soubor povídek je jakousi verbální anatomií vztahu mezi pohlavími, výpravou do světa myslí a těl „prozacového národa“. Titulní cyklus, který prorůstá celou knihou, má podobu přepisu rozhovorů s 18 muži, jejichž promluvy jsou formovány nepřítomností tázající osoby. Strach mužů z ženských soudů tu ústí v egománii, mizogynii a objektivizaci svého protějšku....
