Pre-Order Infinite Jest - Deluxe Edition

Edit 3/12/2015: Amazon is now crediting the foreword to Tom Bissell (Cheers to @mattbucher for pointing this out). Also note that the cover design comp announcement on the official page disappeared ages ago and no winner has been announced... I have no idea what is going on there. If you are interested in seeing some entries Chris Ayers is collecting and showcasing entries for the competition on his incredible Poor Yorick Entertainment blog and Facebook page.

I hope the p 981 circle is re-instated too...

Edit 29/9/2015: Re: the comment added today from Steve Moore (see below) it looks like we can, at the very least, expect some typo and space corrections.

I've just learned that the new edition will correct about twenty typos and space issues. I submitted a list to Michael Pietsch a while back; he said a few typos had been corrected in a recent printing, and the rest will be made for this deluxe edition.

You can now pre-order the 20th anniversary Deluxe Edition of Infinite Jest due for release on the 23rd of February 2016. Check out the cover design comp if you live in the US and have a great idea for a new cover.

1136 pages - I expect this accounts for a new introduction (Edit: New foreword by Tom Bissell). More if I hear anything.

(Original 1996 cover)
