Infinite Jest: David Foster Wallace: a novel

'A writer of virtuostic talents who can seemingly do anything' – New York Times

'Wallace is a superb comedian of culture . . . his exuberance and intellectual impishness are a delight' – James Wood, Guardian

'He induces the kind of laughter which, when read in bed with a sleeping partner, wakes said sleeping partner up . . . He's damn good' – Nicholas Lezard, Guardian

'One of the best books about addiction and recovery to appear in recent memory' – Sunday Times

Somewhere in the not-so-distant future, the residents of Ennet House, a Boston halfway house for recovering addicts, and the students at the nearby Enfield Tennis Academy find themselves entangled in the search for the master copy of Infinite Jest.

This movie is said to be so dangerously entertaining that its viewers become utterly entranced, ultimately expiring in a state of catatonic bliss . . .
