Both flesh & not

Sobre el libro Both flesh & not de David Foster Wallace publicado por Penguin Books al 2013:

Both Flesh and Not combines David Foster Wallace´s best-loved essays with work never before published in the UK. Beloved for his brilliantly discerning eye, his verbal elasticity and his uniquely generous imagination, David Foster Wallace was heralded by critics and fans as the voice of a generation. Collected in Both Flesh and Not are fifteen essays published for the first time in book form, including writing never published before in the UK. From ´Federer Both Flesh and Not´, considered by many to be his nonfiction masterpiece; to ´The (As it Were) Seminal Importance of Terminator 2,´ which deftly dissects James Cameron´s blockbuster; to ´Fictional Futures and the Conspicuously Young´, an examination of television´s effect on a new generation of writers, David Foster Wallace´s writing swoops from erudite literary discussion to open-hearted engagement with the most familiar of our twentieth-century cultural references. A celebration of Wallace´s great loves -for language, for precision, for meaning- and a feast of enjoyment for his fans, Both Flesh and Not is a fitting tribute to this writer who was never concerned with anything less important than what it means to be alive.
