Girl with Curious Hair (Norton Paperback Fiction)

Girl with Curious Hair (Norton Paperback Fiction)

<p><strong>Remarkable, hilarious and unsettling re-imaginations of reality by "a dynamic writer of extraordinary talent " (Jennifer Levin, <em>New York Times Book Review</em>).</strong></p><em>Girl with Curious Hair</em> is replete with David Foster Wallace's remarkable and unsettling reimaginations of reality. From the eerily "real," almost holographic evocations of historical figures like Lyndon Johnson and overtelevised game-show hosts and late-night comedians to the title story, where terminal punk nihilism meets Young Republicanism, Wallace renders the incredible comprehensible, the bizarre normal, the absurd hilarious, the familiar strange.
