Story
Long renowned as one of the smartest writers on the loose, David Foster Wallace reveals himself in Consider the Lobster to be also one of the funniest. In this program, he ranges far and farther in his search for the original, the curious, or the merely mystifying. He discovers the World's Largest Lobster Cooker at the Main Lobster Festival and confronts the inevitable question just beyond the butter-or-cocktail-sauce quandary.

Story
Set in an addicts' halfway house and a tennis academy, and featuring the most endearingly screwed-up family to come along in recent fiction, Infinite Jest explores essential questions about what entertainment is and why it has come to so dominate our lives; about how our desire for entertainment affects our need to connect with other people; and about what the pleasures we choose say about who we are.

Story
Only once did David Foster Wallace give a public talk on his views on life, during a commencement address given in 2005 at Kenyon College. This is the audio recording of David Foster Wallace delivering that very address. How does one keep from going through their comfortable, prosperous adult life unconsciously? How do we get ourselves out of the foreground of our thoughts and achieve compassion? The speech captures Wallace's electric intellect as well as his grace in attention to others.

Story
Imbarcatosi per conto della rivista "Harper's" su una crociera extralusso ai Caraibi, David Foster Wallace scrive un reportage che è ormai diventato un classico dell'umorismo contemporaneo. Affilato come un rasoio ma con leggerezza mercuriale, l'autore traccia qui una satira spietata sull'opulenza e il divertimento di massa della società americana di oggi.

"Unendlicher Spaß" - so nannte James Incandenza seinen Film, der Menschen, die ihn anschauen, so verhext, dass sie sich nicht mehr von ihm lösen können und dabei verdursten und verhungern. Radikale Separatisten planen mithilfe dieses Films einen Angriff auf das sensations- und vergnügungslüsterne Amerika. Ein zügelloser, unfassbarer Roman, der die menschlichen Obsessionen, Zerstreuungen und Lustbarkeiten in Worte fasst.

Story
Is John McCain "for real?" That's the question David Foster Wallace set out to explore when he first climbed aboard Senator McCain's campaign caravan in February 2000. It was a moment when McCain was increasingly perceived as a harbinger of change, the anticandidate whose goal was "to inspire young Americans to devote themselves to causes greater than their own self-interest".
