Remarkable, hilarious, and unsettling re-imaginations of reality by the bestselling author of Infinite Jest , "a dynamic writer of extraordinary talent" ( The New York Times Book Review ).
David Foster Wallace was one of America's most prodigiously talented and original young writers, and Girl with Curious Hair displays the full range of his gifts. From the eerily "real," almost holographic evocations of historical figures such as Lyndon Johnson and overtelevised game-show hosts and late-night comedians to the title story, in which terminal punk nihilism meets Young Republicanism, Wallace renders the incredible comprehensible, the bizarre normal, the absurd hilarious, the familiar strange.
"These stories say something serious and sincere about the world that the rest of us have to live in." — The Washington Post Book World
"Turns the short story upside down and inside out, making the adjectives 'inventive,' 'unique,' and 'original' seem blasé." —T. C. Boyle, New York Times –bestselling author
"A collection of stories as varied in length and theme as they are imaginative, and downright bizarre as any collection by one author has a right to be . . . Truly funny surreal humor." — San Francisco Chronicle
