Infinite Jest
Wallace's encyclopedic novel interweaves narratives of addiction, entertainment, and the search for meaning in late 20th-century America. Set partially in a tennis academy and rehab center, it explores themes of pleasure, communication, loneliness, and the pursuit of happiness in a hyper-mediated world. Its experimental structure and extensive footnotes create a unique reading experience.
