Over the holiday hiatus (i;e; summer hiatus in the southern hemispere!) have
been reading DFW's Infinite_Jest inbetween times watching the cricket (whats
that you may very well ask, an Anglo derivative of flannelled fools
conducting a sporting venture in the blazing summer's mid-day sun!).

Would appreciate any hints, tips or opinions on this massive tome, am using
some pages on the net to make the reading more meaningful but ....

Am finding it at turns immensely 'deep & meaningful', 'truly profound',
'belly-aching hilarious', 'absurdly insane', but some of the verbal
pyrotechnics seem a tad overdone.

Over to you .....
