Infinite Jest Infinite Jest by David Foster Wallace by David Foster Wallace has been disputed as not being an exceptional book. If anyone has any thoughts about this, please let us know.

Nancy Oakes (quinnsmom) It might be helpful if whoever disputes a book explains why they did so. Was it the writing? Subject matter? It might be easier to have a discussion if we know why any book is disputed.

I agree Nancy, that's a good idea. For me, I can't say anything on this book because I've never read it.

Jim On the bookshelf, if you look under the title, you'll see "about". Click on "about" and you'll see the explanation.

Nancy Oakes (quinnsmom) Thank you!

No problem!

BTW, I just noticed that "about" truncates the explanation. Instead, if you go to the far right and click "view" you can see the full explanation plus the group members' reviews.
