what does DFW-esque mean?
Learn to read, the use of 'esque' there is contextual and doesn't imply any self contained meaning of 'DFW-esque'
Without any discernible talent.

It means 'David Foster Wallace-esque', just like in the image.
Outside of a /lit/ context, maybe it means 'Dallas-Fort Worth-esque'.

But it doesn't provide any context. It's clearly just a reference to the "new sincerity" adjective which itself doesn't even explain anything about DFW's writing, the author just knew that his name was somehow related to the phrase "new sincerity" and knew that new sincerity had the word sincerity in it.

This is the right answer OP.
DFW-esque without context means something entirely different to its usage in this extract.
