Wallace delights in leftfield observation, mining the absurd, the surprising, and the illuminating from every situation.
Among the stories are \'The Depressed Person, \' a dazzling and blackly humorous portrayal of a woman\'s mental state; \'Adult World, \' which reveals a woman\'s agonized consideration of her confusing sexual relationship with her husband; and \'Brief Interviews with Hideous Men, \' a dark, hilarious series of imagined Interviews with men on the subject of their relations with women.
Wallace\'s stories present a world where the bizarre and the banal are interwoven and where Hideous men appear in many guises.
In this thought-provoking and playful short story collection, David Foster Wallace nudges at the boundaries of fiction with inimitable wit and seductive intelligence.
