Read it whenever you want really, it's not particularly difficult (with the exception of some chapters e.g. Wardine be cry, Poor Tony), it's just lengthy.

Very keen to pick this up as well, seems to be required reading for any sort of wannabe intellectual

You should read "Oblivion" first

His short stories are incredible and severely underrated.

Why do you write like a retard?
>>
>>8096467
it's mostly about the kids at a private tennis academy in boston (the headmaster has committed suicide, his son is a tennis/academic prodigy with addiction problems) & the residents of the next door halfway house. the book loosely revolves around a film that the dead headmaster made that's so good that anyone who watches it just watches it until they starve to death.

I've been following some /lit/ advice I received a few months ago with regards to DFW. I read a lot of his non-fiction first and really enjoyed it. I've just recently started on his short stories and have been overjoyed so far. Infinite Jest, though earlier chronologically, will be the last thing I tackle and with this knowledge, I feel more motivated to read.
