Description

Otto romanzi brevi in cui Wallace gioca felicemente fra le macerie della realtĂ , aprendo nuove vie, nella scelta sia del tema come della forma piĂč originale e sorprendente. Personaggi descritti nelle loro angosce e allucinazioni, scavati fino a zone inesplorate della psiche e della carne, senza mai la benchĂ© minima concessione a psicologismi o verismo di maniera. Dal giovane di successo consapevole di essere un impostore, condannato a smascherarsi o ad annientarsi, al pluriomicida che di fronte alla cecitĂ  degli altri si scatenerĂ  in un college. Oltre le singole storie, questo libro mostra che la letteratura puĂČ arrivare al cuore marcio della societĂ  e spalancarci il corpo martoriato, eppure cosĂŹ normale, della nostra vita quotidiana.
