Kindle Exclusive Deal: Now through 2/28/2026, purchase Diana Marcum's THE TENTH ISLAND for just $2.49! www.amazon.com/Tenth-Island...

“Infinite Jest” is a masterpiece and a pleasure to read, Hermione Hoby writes. “Perhaps the greatest disjunction between the book’s reputation and its contents lies in the notion that it’s a pretentious slog no one could honestly enjoy.” newyorkermag.visitlink.me/wMi7gG

“I want to author things that both restructure worlds and make living people feel stuff,” David Foster Wallace wrote to his editor while writing “Infinite Jest,” which was published 30 years ago today. Revisit a profile of the author from 2009 newyorkermag.visitlink.me/qHcsBY

When “Infinite Jest” appeared, in 1996, it was more than a best-seller; it was a phenomenon, a widespread, must-read accessory and experience. It’s become a cultural punch line—but it continues to offer pleasures and lessons for readers. newyorkermag.visitlink.me/P3f2zZ
