I quote:

"extraordinary young writer" and prize-winner RICK MOODY reads from "Purple
America", his greatly anticipated novel about the meltdown of the nuclear
family. DAVID FOSTER WALLACE's second novel, "Infinite Jest," is a
sprawling, engaging social satire hailed as "a work of genius."

>>>>Is Purple America the source of the dreamscape or whatever it was in The New Yorker a couple issues back?

Wonder why Pynchon doesn't also write about family life? A family more nuclear than Vineland's.

Love to hear from him on the subject.

Worked for Wallace.
