How can one avoid going through life comfortably and prosperously, without awareness? How do we escape the foreground of our thoughts and achieve compassion? The discourse captures the electric intellect of Wallace, as well as his ability to pay attention to others. After his death, this text became a valuable piece of writing, reissued in The Wall Street Journal and in the London Times, with countless comments on blogs and announcements among friends. With his unique blend of humor, rigorous intellect, and practical philosophy, David Foster Wallace explores the challenges of everyday life and offers insights that rejuvenate us with each reading.
