Hey /lit/ what's some good entry level DFW? I was staring at Brooms of the System and The Girl with the Curious Hair at the book store and couldn't decide. (inb4 Infinite Jest)

Where should I start with David Foster Wallace?

I hear he's quite difficult to read. Has anyone got any experience with his stuff? Has anyone here read Infinite Jest? Is it worth an entry-level reader's time or should I 'build up' to it and carry on with my entry-level stuff?

Don't forget to carry a length of rope with you. It could come in handy.

- I like it outside. Uncle Hal... When is Dave coming back?
- Dave... Is sick. So he went on a trip to help him get better.
- We're not going with him?
- No. He needs to be alone.
- I wonder if I'll ever see him again.
- Dave... Had a hard life. He needs some time to rest.
- Are you... Crying, Uncle Hal?
- No... I'm not crying.
