    I owe a big thank to the organizers of the Infinite Summer, without whom this book probably would still be waiting for me to read it, sitting lonely in a corner of my inadequate bookshelf.
    This book is an experience of post-modernism, a challenging and passionate thousand pages voyage through american (and/or western) culture and society, made of addictions, mediatized and where human needs=Entertainement. Inspiring themes dealt with a great confidence and skill (I often felt as if I was being read this book).
    The first sentiment as I turned the last page of it was that I will miss this object, with which I've spent the last few months. Not only that: I might want to read it again to absorb it even more.
    It has been said by more important voices that DFW might've been the genious of this generation of young american writers, and I cannot but agree.
