Publisher's Note
"Girl with Curious Hair" displays the full range of Mr David Foster Wallace, one of the most promising young writers in American today. From the eerily "real," almost holographic evocations of historical figures like Lyndon Johnson and overtelevised late-night comedians and game-show hosts, to the title story, where terminal punk nihilism meets Young Republicanism, Wallace renders the incredible comprehensible, the bizarre normal, the absurd hilarious, the familiar strange.

This collection could possibly represent the first flowering of post-postmoderism: visions of the world that re-imagine reality as more realistic than we can imagine. A compelling presence of a holograph and the up-to-the-second feeling of the most advanced art.

Industry Reviews
"[A] dynamic writer of extraordinary talent.... Powerful, fixating, explosive and mysterious...succeeds in restoring grandeur to modern fiction.
New York Times Book Review - Jennifer Levin

"David Foster Wallace turns the short story upside down and inside out, making the adjectives 'innovative,' 'unique,' and 'original' seem blase."
Book Jacket - T. Coraghessan Boyle

"[O]pened the door to a whole new approach to American short fiction....The stories are brilliant, wildly imaginative, and had a strong impact on many younger writers when they were first published."
Harper's - Vince Passaro (08/19/1999)

"As startling and barometrically accurate as anything in recent decades. Wallace is, for better or worse, the savvy and watchful voice of the NOW."
Boyle
