Read DFW’s Infinite Jest this Summer

Infinite Summer

It looks like a few folks got together and formed a little book club called Infinite Summer. The idea: read David Foster Wallace’s masterwork, Infinite Jest, this summer.

You’ve been meaning to do it for over a decade. Now join endurance bibliophiles from around the web as we tackle and comment upon David Foster Wallace’s masterwork, June 21st to September 22nd. A thousand pages รท 93 days = 75 pages a week. No sweat.

The site says to check back June 1st for full details.

I’m on board. Anyone with me? Let me know in the comments.
