RIP: David Foster Wallace
The literary world was rocked by the news that we had lost another one of our own. David Foster Wallace, author of the iconic novel Infinite Jest, had apparently hanged himself, according to California authorities. My deepest sympathies go out to his family, friends and all his fans. His legacy will live on. While I have heard of Wallace, I haven’t read any of his works.
