A magnificent group interview with David Lipsky about his new book (and many other things) was just posted to wallace-l (the David Foster Wallace mailing list) and Matt Bucher's website. David Lipsky answers a number of challenging and insightful questions from long time David Foster Wallace readers. I'm not going to post any snippets here, just go and read it, knowing that the answer to David Hering's question reveals one of a few stunning moments from Lipsky's book - I was left with my jaw literally hanging open after I read that passage a month or so ago.
Big shout out to some of the people who got questions or mentions in the interview, Maria Bustillos, Marie Mundaca, David Hering (Liverpool DFW conference organiser who presented the paper Dreams Within Dreams: Wallace, Lynch, Oblivions at the NY Footnotes conference), George Carr (currently coordinating the Westward read at wallace-l), and most of all Matt Bucher, wallace-l owner, who organised it all.
