David Foster Wallace – Infinite Jest – First US Edition 1996
£485.00
A first edition, first printing published by Little, Brown and Company in 1996. A good copy of the first US edition. The dust wrapper is in very good condition with only minimal signs of shelf wear present – small wear to the top of the rear panel corner – it is not price clipped. The front board has a crease which has affected the front pastedown in the same way. One corner a little worn. The text block is light worn – there is no foxing. First issue with all points sated.
Infinite Jest is a novel which has an unconventional narrative structure and includes hundreds of extensive endnotes, some with footnotes of their own. Categorized as an encyclopedic language novel, Infinite Jest is featured in TIME magazine’s list of the 100 best English language novels published between 1923 and 2005.
