Review title: Things Like This Keep One Reading
Product review: I finished Infinite Jest about three years ago. Even so, I remember the reading experience as vividly as I remember eating oranges for breakfast this morning. When the covers of the book were open, I lived in a different place and among a different group of people. I loathe sappy love-notes to writers and books, particularly those penned by the Gen-X crowd, but the world DFW created in Infinite Jest was for that month or so as sharply real -- as sad, funny, bawdy, dumb, pointless, meaningful, infinitely inconclusive -- as the actual world that pushed back in when I closed the book's covers. I am a jaded reader to whom that never, ever happens. For it to happen at this stage of my reading life is a gift, because it means that I will continue to read good hard books forever, confirmed in the knowledge that it is possible for someone to create something this good, and that if I keep working and reading I may once again be fortunate enough to find it.
