Both Flesh and Not: Essays

by David Foster Wallace
Publisher

Binding
Hardcover
Pages

A Little, Brown paperback collecting fifteen David Foster Wallace essays, several published here in book form for the first time. The subjects range from Roger Federer to Jorge Luis Borges to the English language's most abused words. The book includes a selection from Wallace's personal vocabulary list, which is either endearing or insufferable depending on your tolerance. The cover is the standard Little, Brown literary look: clean, serious, slightly too large for the page count. Ideal reader: the Wallace fan who has already read the major collections and wants the outtakes, or the tennis player who needs a defense of watching sports as an aesthetic experience.
