>>	Anonymous Wed Apr 2 17:07:04 2014 No.4730384 >>4730337 He perspirated a lot and was pretty nervous about it. I remember hearing that he would carry around a tennis racket and a towel at high school all the time so he had an excuse to wipe his sweat.

>>	Anonymous Wed Apr 2 17:17:04 2014 No.4730414 What of his works should I read if I don't want to jump on Infinite Jest ?

>>	Anonymous Wed Apr 2 17:19:04 2014 No.4730420 >>4730414 Don't bother with his essays; he was a mediocre thinker. Try his short stories.
