An instant classic of American sportswriting—the tennis essays of David Foster Wallace, “the best mind of his generation” (A. O. Scott) and “the best tennis-writer of all time” (New York Times)
Gathered for the first time in a deluxe collector's edition, here are David Foster Wallace's legendary writings on tennis, five tour-de-force pieces written with a competitor's insight and a fan's obsessive enthusiasm. Wallace brings his dazzling literary magic to the game he loved as he celebrates the other-worldly genius of Roger Federer; offers a wickedly witty disection of Tracy Austin's memoir; considers the artistry of Michael Joyce, a supremely disciplined athlete on the threshold of fame; resists the crush of commerce at the U.S. Open; and recalls his own career as a "near-great" junior player.
Whiting Award-winning writer John Jeremiah Sullivan provides an introduction.
David Foster Wallace (1962–2008) was born in Ithaca, New York, in 1962 and raised in Champaign-Urbana, Illinois, where in his teens he was a regionally ranked junior tennis player. His works include Infinite Jest, Girl with Curious Hair, Brief Interviews with Hideous Men, Oblivion, A Supposedly Fun Thing I’ll Never Do Again, and Consider the Lobster. His final novel, The Pale King, was posthumously published in 2011.

评分英文原版,感谢狮女士的馈赠。喜爱的文风,全书简直是GRE词汇大全,查的词快比我会的词都多了
评分能把关于网球的散文写到这样的高度,华莱士真的是有才华。许多体育散文到最后总是用上一些不切实际的比喻,来达到作者想要表达人生哲理的目的。而华莱士因为自身就是一名网球好手,所以叙述相当真实而有深度,在把网球运动员所面对的林林总总全部娓娓道来后,他倾向于给读者留下一段思考的空间。

评分写的最好的两篇是How Tracy Austin Broke My Heart和Federer Both Flesh and Not Wallace自己本身打过青少年网球,评价起球员来有时候直白的近乎刻薄,部分平铺直叙对常看网球的人来说也不免有些累赘,但他那些奇妙的类比和由此衍生出的哲学思考才是这本书令人惊叹的精髓所在。 这本书里最奇妙的观点,出现在Wallace对卓越和平庸的探讨里。 他意识到也许只有不具备天赋的人,才能看到并且思考这种自己没有运气拥有的天赋,而具备天赋的人反而blind and dumb,但这种盲目和愚钝并不是天赋的代价,而恰恰是天赋的本质。 我看完这本书后最大的感受,的确是惋惜Wallace已经不在人世。我实在是很好奇,他会怎么写现在这个处在变革和交替边缘的网坛。
