About this book

Infinite Jest by David Foster Wallace is a long, demanding novel that has become one of the defining American books of the late twentieth century. Set partly in a tennis academy and partly in a halfway house for recovering addicts, it weaves together hundreds of pages of footnotes, sub plots, and meditations on entertainment, addiction, and what humans are willing to do for pleasure.

It is not a casual read. But for serious readers willing to commit, the rewards are real.
