DFW: Interview with Wallace

[Henry M]

The stories would make excellent little plays with very little effort.
 The voices of DFW's dialogues are much more diverse than OBA's.  I
think that OBA's dialogue can be a little weak, and that that is one
of the main things that people have a difficult time with when they
try to read his books.

AsB4,
