Six stories encompassing a vast gamut of personalities situations and emotions these stories penetrate our motives for doing what is right. Often there is no right or wrong and the characters' motives for the choices they make are as diverse as the childhood memories they cherish and abhor. In the end this book probes individual impulse and responsibility creating stories so unerringly authentic that they become—irrepressibly—part of everyone who reads them. "The Darkness of Love" narrates three days in the life of a black policeman distressed by his inner fears of racism and irresistibly attracted by his wife's sister. In "Dancing in the Movies" a college student returns to his hometown where he finds his girlfriend—a heroin addict—and tries to convince her to overcome her habit. There are stories of men at war of lovers trying to begin a relationship of others trying to sustain their love. Each story revolves around characters with a choice to make and Robert Boswell renders these characters in all of their fine vulnerable and relentless attributes.

réf. B9781628924534Paperback / softback. New. Of the twelve books David Foster Wallace published both during his lifetime and posthumously only three were novels. Nevertheless Wallace always thought of himself primarily as a novelist. From his college years at Amherst when he wrote his first novel as part of a creative honors thesis to his final days Wallace was buried in a novel project which he often referred to as "the Long Thing." Meanwhile the short stories and journalistic assignments he worked on during those years he characterized as "playing hooky from a certain Larger Thing." Wallace was also a specific kind of novelist devoted to producing a specific kind of novel namely the omnivorous culture-consuming "encyclopedic" novel as described in 1976 by Edward Mendelson in a ground-breaking essay on Thomas Pynchon's Gravity's Rainbow. David Foster Wallace and "The Long Thing" is a state-of-the art guide through Wallace's three major works including the generation-defining Infinite Jest. These essays provide fresh new readings of each of Wallace's novels as well as thematic essays that trace out patterns and connections across the three works. Most importantly the collection includes six chapters on Wallace's unfinished novel The Pale King which will prove to be foundational for future scholars of this important text. paperback
