What is IJIJ? IJIJ is a group read and discussion of the Novel 'Infinite Jest'. This page is for those who want check where we are up to and have access to some useful links.
Want to join? Anyone is welcome, though be warned, if you have not read IJ already there are many spoilers within the discussions. We decided not to mark spoilers as they are too hard to avoid in a book of this magnitude. To join, all you have to do is sign up with the Wallace-l mailing list and keep an eye out for any post with IJIJ in the topic.
