Most fans of contemporary literature know David Foster Wallace's monumental novel Infinite Jest. Less well known are his efforts during the 1990's and 2000's as an essayist on pop culture and a 'gonzo' journalist intrepidly reporting what he sees, hears, smells, etc. on assignment from Harper's, Atlantic Monthly, Premier, Rolling Stone, Gourmet, and other venues. A Supposedly Fun Thing I'll Never Do Again (1997) is a great example of his journalistic style. He's more refined that Hunter S. Thompson, but he's every bit as much an alien on an expensive cruise ship vacation in the Caribbean (in the essay "A Supposedly Fun Thing I'll Never Do Again") or at the Illinois State Fair (in the essay "Getting Away from Already Being Pretty Much Away from It All") or on set for a few days with David Lynch and crew filming Lynch's movie Lost Highway (2000) in the essay "David Lynch Keeps His Head" (gonzo commentary interspersed with critical reviews of Lynch's Blue Velvet, Dune, Wild at Heart, and of course the TV series Twin Peaks). And see his reporting at the world-famous Maine Lobster Festival held every late July that DFW chronicles in one of the essays published in 2005's Consider the Lobster (check out the scientific lore that DFW includes about these bottom-dwelling sea 'insects,' in the tradition of Melville's scientific interludes about whale anatomy and whale habits in Moby Dick). The book Consider the Lobster also finds our intrepid journalist at the Las Vegas convention for the porn industry one year (the essay is entitled "Big Red Son" following Hollywood slang for it's more profitable offspring), and his conversations with the industry moguls and porn actresses he meets and hangs out with are priceless. No topic is too high or too low for DFW's journalistic eye - similarly his eye for truth in his short stories, see especially the collection titled "Oblivion" in which DFW samples big-time marketing firms ("Mr. Squishy") and small-time rural hustlers ("The Suffering Channel").It's not all just fun, though. The essay in A Supposedly Fun Thing I'll Never Do Again titled "E Unibus Pluram" tackles the 'predatory instincts' of fiction writers in the television age in a critical review of new fiction, an essay that is read in university Lit departments all over the country. In Consider the Lobster, DFW reviews (and demolishes) Updike's Toward the End of Time (1998) in the essay "Certainly the End of Something or Other" (a sample: "Mailer, Updike, Roth - the Great Male Narcissists ('GMNs') who've dominated postwar American fiction are now in their senescence, and it must seem to them no coincidence that the prospect of their own deaths appears backlit by the approaching millennium and online predictions of the death of the novel as we know it. When a solipsist dies, after all, everything goes with him. And no US novelist has mapped the inner terrain of the solipsist better than John Updike . . ."). DFW even pays homage to Kafka in "Some Remarks on Kafka's Funniness" (a sample: "Kafka, of course, would be in a unique position to appreciate the irony of submitting his short stories to this kind of high-efficiency critical machine ['the standard undergrad critical analysis'], the literary equivalent of tearing the petals off and grinding them up and running the goo through a spectrometer to explain why a rose smells so pretty").And DFW also turns his attention to the philosophical underpinnings of contemporary critical literary theory. The essay titled "Greatly Exaggerated" (in A Supposedly Fun Thing I'll Never Do Again) is an independent-thinking American intellectual's take on the 'fertile miscegenation' of Marxist critical theory and philosophy. A sample: "The deconstructionist ('deconstructionist' and 'poststructuralist' mean the same thing, by the way: 'poststructuralist' is what you call a deconstructionist who doesn't want to be called a deconstructionist), explicitly follows Husserl and Heidegger the same way the New Critics had co-opted Hegel." Another sample: "[T]hese guys - Derrida following Heidegger and Barthes Mallarme and Foucault God knows who - see literary language as not a tool but an environment. A writer does not wield language; he is subsumed in it. Language speaks us; writing writes; etc."Sample DFW's wide-ranging, wonderful intellectual vistas for yourself! I honestly tried to like this book because DFW has been so praised & exalted, as many celebrities are after an untimely death - in this case by suicide. However, it seemed to me he sat with a huge dictionary as he wrote this & sprinkled as many obscure words as possible throughout his tortured prose. Maybe it's simply a matter of taste - or the Emperor really has no clothes.
