Girl With Curious Hair Av David Foster Wallace

<p><b>'A visionary, a craftsman, a comedian... he's in a different time-space continuum from the rest of us. Goddam him' </b>Zadie Smith, <i>Guardian</i><br><br><b>'David Foster Wallace turns the short story upside down and inside out, making the adjectives 'inventive', 'unique' and 'original' seem </b><b>blasé' </b>T. Coraghessan Boyle<br><br><b>'Truly funny surreal humour' </b><i>San Francisco Chronicle</i><br><i><br>Girl With Curious Hair</i> is replete with the prodigious talent of David Foster Wallace and his remarkable and unsettling re-imaginations of reality. From an eerily 'real', almost holographic evocation of Lyndon B. Johnson, to over-televised 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.</p>
