Oct 26, 2011 - David Foster Wallace seems to have been a painfully observant and honest person who would not let his ego get away with any face-saving vanity without documenting it. Did he ever give himself a break for being human?

Dec 21, 2011 - I give you a hug. I feel the same way. There are a couple of people who left life because they were too sensitive to handle the cold heartedness of so many. And it's those who are so sensitive, too sensitive to handle humans, who animals and humans need so desperately to stay.

Mar 6, 2012 - What a lovely thing to say! At a turn-your question smacks as sentimental- and we serious fans of literary fiction detest sentimentality.Then,after getting over my self-importance, I'm allowing myself to really feel that question.If Wallace really believed "What Is Water?" he'd not have forced suffering on his wife and sister and friends like Franzen; but he HAD TO GO. Your question seems to ask more about the nature of depression than the human condition.cheers

jaybickford79 Says:

Mar 6, 2012 - Franzen was genuine and love Wallace and respects his legacy and close personal friendship. Ellis is a snide and less fecundit writer that Wallace, and was resentful for being overshadowed by a jock. Ask Rick Moody or Jane Smiley or Franzen himself- they are all accesible and open to discussion on this topic.

jaybickford79 Says:

Mar 6, 2012 - Also- Hunter S. Thompson has far more fans than readers. He was a bit of a hack; that is why his hackneyed journalism will not survive the cultural tides- while Wallace and Franzen will stand beside Tolstoy, Chekov, Nabokov, Updike, Roth and DeLillo. Face it; Hunter S. is supported by Phish fans. Get over you drug induced revalations and ideosyncracies and join the great dialogue of real literary fiction. P.S.- Johnny Depp is a dumbass.

jaybickford79 Says:

Mar 6, 2012 - You've misappropriated "whilst" here. Flower your diction, much?

jaybickford79 Says:

Mar 6, 2012 - run on sentence much? punctuate, dude!

JayinMovingPictures Says:

Mar 7, 2012 - Pedantic cunt. Is that flowery enough for you?

jaybickford79 Says:

Mar 9, 2012 - I love the juxtaposition "pedantic" with "cunt". That's much better.
