Every Love Story Is a Ghost Story: A Life of David Foster Wallace by D.T. Max

4.0

DFW was a fascinating, complicated person and an excellent writer. Max captures all of this in his fantastic biography of Wallace, providing the necessary backstory to show who he was as a person and what made him tick. Having read Infinite Jest, this book helps ground it in the reality of the author and his craft, in spite of everyone raising DFW to a mythic status now that he never had during his life.
