Then don't fucking read it, stupid

if i liked brief interviews with hideous men, will i like this?

Yeah?

Yes.

This.

How is he gonna have the honor of saying he read it?

Worst book ever IMO is Metamorphoses by Ovid

Burn it

Just finished it two days ago. Really liked it. What do you not like about it OP?

Why do you think it's called infinite jest?

It's my first book I've read of David Foster and his writing style is different than other books I read.

Not sure how far few you are but at a point the style and the footnotes became endearing to me rather than intrusive.

So you can focus on the audiobook

Is that a mario reference

The mario parts are worth the slog alone

Bro. What if The Entertainment is the current state of the internet? And the late DFW was able to predict it. He predicted human's using social media as a way to torture one's inner anxieties.

the entertainment is everything you retard.

Yeah wish we got a scene of Mario hanging with the halfway home folks.

The scene when the ugly girl tries to have sex with mario hit way too close

Yeah he really was a good character still good ol Don G. was my favorite

The Hal/Mario conversations are kino

figures the transexual hates this book.
i will admit, the book doesn't have flattering portrayals of their kind, but l think you'd be missing the point if you thought they were purely ill-intentioned. He's really saying trannies are more vulnerable to the system, which is the one with true ill-intentions for everyone.

He might also be saying something about it being a symptom of betrayal by loved ones, whrere you try to assume the role that was lost or something. idk its confusing.

I prefer my jests to be finite

As soon as I found out that it takes place in and around a tennis school I fucking dropped it.

It smelled of YA shit.

Guess you only read big boy books about battles and kings huh champ

most plots are happening at the rehab bro

Haven't you learned OP? Anything peddled by the masses is terrible

Find your own authors

>In the novel's future world, the United States, Canada, and Mexico together compose a unified North American superstate known as the Organization of North American Nations, or O.N.A.N. (an allusion to onanism).[10]

>Corporations are allowed the opportunity to bid for and purchase naming rights for each calendar year, replacing traditional numerical designations with ostensibly honorary monikers bearing corporate names. Although the narrative is fragmented and spans several "named" years, most of the story takes place during "The Year of the Depend Adult Undergarment" (Y.D.A.U.).

>On the orders of U.S. President Johnny Gentle (a "clean freak" who campaigned on the platform of cleaning up the USA while ensuring that no American would be caused any discomfort in the process), much of what used to be the northeastern United States and southeastern Canada has become a giant hazardous waste dump, an area "given" to Canada and known as the "Great Concavity" by Americans due to the resulting displacement of the border.

Holy fuck, is this really the setting of Infinite Jest? This shit is idiocracy-tier retardation.

I would only be interested if the audiobook was actually read by DFW, I like his cadence.

This is an awful opinion

try reading it when you AREN'T menstruating, sis

Nice b8

Sometimes I think about reading it, but then I recall one particularly dorky paragraph I've read somewhere at random, and say, fuck that noise, pham, could read complete Borges instead.

but then my friends on Yea Forums will stop liking me.

honestly no idea what about this book riles you people up so much. I've read it, and it's not that grating, it's not that pretentious, and it's not that experimental. it's pretty much the epitome of 6/10 slightly-above-average writing

its like a shit version of pic related
