Infinite Jest is a 1996 novel by David Foster Wallace. The lengthy and complex work takes place in a semi-parodic future version of North America, and touches on substance addiction recovery programs, depression, child abuse, family relationships, advertising, popular entertainment, film theory, Quebec separatism, and tennis, among other topics.
The novel includes 388 numbered endnotes (some of which have footnotes of their own) that explain or expand on points in the story. In an interview with Charlie Rose, Wallace characterized them as a method of disrupting the linearity of the text while maintaining some sense of narrative cohesion.[1]
The novel was included by Time magazine in its list of the 100 best English-language novels published since 1923.[2]
As of 2006 (ten years after its publication), 150,000 copies of Infinite Jest had been sold and the book has continued to sell steadily.[3]
Wallace was 33 when the novel was published.

评分① 连第一句话都看不懂 ★★★★★ 看到20页就搁下了。做了一个试验，撰了一个问题，故意写得很长，分三天豆油了200人，因为每天的豆油有限额。收到20条回复： 8条说不认识我叫我滚 6条？ 是太高深？我给这14个人拟了一封回信：先不管那个，唉我最近好烦，不知道...
