Overview

Girl with Curious Hair is replete with David Foster Wallace’s remarkable and unsettling reimaginations of reality. From the eerily “real,” almost holographic evocations of historical figures like Lyndon Johnson and overtelevised game-show hosts and late-night comedians to the title story, where terminal punk nihilism meets Young Republicanism, Wallace renders the incredible comprehensible, the bizarre normal, the absurd hilarious, the familiar strange.

Mr. Wallace brings us, time and again, to hidden, mythic places that are strange yet oddly familiar. He succeeds in restoring grandeur to modern fiction.–Jennifer Levin "New York Times Book Review"
