Review: 'The Pale King' by David Foster Wallace
Fittingly released on April 15, The Pale King is a difficult but splendid read, following the twisted, turning stories of characters who will ultimately convene at an IRS Examination Center in 1985. Sadly, it's a posthumous release, but a wonderful one.

| 'A Supposedly Fun Thing I'll Never Do Again'
If Wallace's thousand-page opus, Infinite Jest, is a bit much for you to tackle, perhaps these short(er) essays are more your speed. This is the ideal book to take on a cruise. (Snicker, snicker...)
