Softcover. Condition: Good. Special Edition. This deluxe paperback edition -- featuring flaps, new cover art, and a new foreword by Tom Bissell -- celebrates the 20th anniversary of the original publication of Infinite Jest.A gargantuan, mind-altering comedy about the Pursuit of Happiness in America set in an addicts' halfway house and a tennis academy, and featuring the most endearingly screwed-up family to come along in recent fiction, Infinite Jest explores essential questions about what entertainment is and why it has come to so dominate our lives; about how our desire for entertainment affects our need to connect with other people; and about what the pleasures we choose say about who we are.Equal parts philosophical quest and screwball comedy, Infinite Jest bends every rule of fiction without sacrificing for a moment its own entertainment value. It is an exuberant, uniquely American exploration of the passions that make us human - and one of those rare books that renew the idea of what a novel can do.

"DAS literarische Ereignis in diesem Jahr! Vor einem Jahr nahm sich David Foster Wallace, einer der wichtigsten Vertreter der amerikanischen Literatur, das Leben. Sechs Jahre lang hat Ulrich Blumenbach an der Übersetzung von Wallaces Opus magnum gearbeitet, dem größten Übersetzungsprojekt in der Geschichte des Verlags. Unendlicher Spaß - so nannte James Incandenza seinen Film, der Menschen, die ihn anschauen, so verhext, dass sie sich nicht mehr von ihm lösen können und dabei verdursten und verhungern. Sein Sohn Hal, ein Tenniswunderkind mit außergewöhnlichen intellektuellen Fähigkeiten, studiert an der Enfield Tennis Academy, die von seinem Vater gegründet wurde. Hier sowie im nahe gelegenen Ennet-House, einem Entziehungsheím für Drogenabhängige, spielt ein Teil der überbordenden Handlung, die jeden literarischen Kosmos sprengt - in einem leicht in die Zukunft versetzten Amerika, das mit Kanada und Mexiko die "Organisation der nordamerikanischen Nationen" bildet und von radikalen Separatisten in Kanada bekämpft wird. 1996 erschien Infinite Jest in den USA und machte David Foster Wallace über Nacht zum Superstar der Literaturszene. Die sprachliche Kreativität, die ungeheure Themenvielfalt, die treffsichere Gesellschaftskritik, scharfe Analyse sowie der Humor machen den Roman zum Meilenstein der amerikanischen Literatur. Ulrich Blumenbach hat sechs Jahre lang an der Übersetzung gearbeitet, und seine kongeniale Übertragung ins Deutsche gibt deutschsprachigen Lesern nun endlich die Möglichkeit, das Buch kennen zu lernen." (Verlagstext) David Foster Wallace (* 21. Februar 1962 in Ithaca, New York; gestorben [Freitod] 12. September 2008 in Claremont, Kalifornien) war ein US-amerikanischer Schriftsteller und Hochschullehrer. Bekannt wurde er durch seinen 1996 veröffentlichten Roman Infinite Jest (Unendlicher Spaß). Das Magazin Time zählt das Werk zu den wichtigsten englischsprachigen Romanen, die zwischen 1923 und 2005 erschienen sind. Wallace' Leben war vom Kampf gegen seine schwere Depression und seine Alkoholabhängigkeit gekennzeichnet. Er nahm sich im Alter von 46 Jahren während einer schweren depressiven Episode das Leben. Zum literarischen Nachlass von Wallace zählt ein nicht vollendeter Roman, der 2011 unter dem Titel The Pale King (deutscher Titel: Der bleiche König) erschien. Das Buch war 2012 für den Pulitzer-Preis nominiert. Die Jury konnte sich allerdings nicht auf einen der drei Finalisten einigen, sodass der Preis 2012 nicht vergeben wurde. (Wikipedia) In deutscher Sprache. 1547, (3) pages. 8° (145 x 220mm).

Top-edge of the text block a bit spotted. Jacket nearly Fine with no chips or tears. First state with the "Vollman" misprint on the rear panel. "Infinite Jest is more or less evenly split between the story of the Incandenza family, dysfunctional proprietors of a tennis academy, and that of the residents of a halfway house for addicts, separated from their luckier counterparts by 'a tall and more or less denuded hill.' One houses America's winners; the other, its losers. The two groups rarely interact, and the sections of the book dedicated to them differ in tone: the first is more comic, the second more realist, even heart-string-pulling. The unique feel of the novel comes from this juxtaposition.but what may be most special about it is its experimental quality. Infinite Jest is a novel about the narcotic power of language" (The New Yorker). Near Fine in Near Fine dust jacket.
