such a horrible loss. David Foster Wallace was an immense talent, arguably the best writer to emerge in the past 20 years. I'm glad I had a chance to see him read -- at a book signing at the Boston Public Library after A Supposedly Fun Thing... was released. I've been thinking about that, and Infinite Jest, a lot the past 24 hrs. damn.
This really, really hurts.
