This celebrated collection of essays from the author of Infinite Jest is "brilliantly entertaining...Consider the Lobster proves once more why Wallace should be regarded as this generation's best comic writer" (Cleveland Plain Dealer). Do lobsters feel pain? Did Franz Kafka have a funny bone? What is John Updike's deal, anyway? And what happens when adult video starlets meet their fans in person? David Foster Wallace answers these questions and more in essays that are also enthralling narrative adventures. Whether covering the three-ring circus of John McCain's 2000 presidential race, plunging into the wars between dictionary writers, or confronting the World's Largest Lobster Cooker at the annual Maine Lobster Festival, Wallace projects a quality of thought that is uniquely his and a voice as powerful and distinct as any in American letters. "Wallace can do sad, funny, silly, heartbreaking, and absurd with equal ease; he can even do them all at once." --Michiko Kakutani, New York TimesShipping Notes

Recommend
Format: Board book
My daughter and I enjoy reading this. She matches the pictures on the pages with those on the buttons. Lots of words she already knows and a good mix of new words. Durable hardback pages.

Who doesn't like Eric Carle books?
Format: Board book
Always been a fan of Eric Carle books. My 10 month old likes the sounds and pictures. He has other similar books, but we like him to see a variety of illustrations. With the pandemic going on, my he is missing out on a lot. One day we will go to the zoo and see real animals, but for now these books will have to do.
