The Howling Fantods

Matt has been doing a great job maintaining the Uncollected DFW page and it has been updated with some great pdf files of unavailable DFW texts. Of particular note is 'Crash of '69' which Matt has wonderfully restored.

Here is how I spent my time over Easter.

The 'Reel Girl' blog over at E-Online has a mini interview with John Krasinski. Looks like he'll be editing in May. Read it here.

Is anyone out there planning to attend this? 

 

Reminder:

David Foster Wallace will take part in the 2007 Spring reading programme at the New Mexico State University on Friday March 30 at Hardman Hall, Room 106, 7:30pm. 

While the site was down for an extended period a few weeks back word got around for an event held in Italy last year where a number of authors got together to read and discuss their fiction, DFW was there. For long time DFW fans it comes as no surprise to hear he is working on something a bit longer than short fiction.

Thanks to the amazing work of Ryan, Matt, George, and numerous other people behind the scenes there has been a flurry of work on the DFW Bibliography. Ryan's BibTex DFW Bibliography has just made revision 5 and it is a beauty. It surpassed the old bibliography here at the Fantods a long time ago, and now sits at the top of the bibliography page. The best thing is that there is much more to come!

 

Just as exciting is the side project maintained by Matt and hosted here, The Uncollected DFW. This is an extensive list of uncollected DFW works, some of which have been scanned and are available as pdf files from outside this site! Enjoy!

 

On a side note, if you are interested in submitting DFW related resources to the site, have an idea, or just have the time to track down broken links using archive.org etc drop me a line, here.
