David Foster Wallace

Not quite ready for LL, but some glimpses. About 200 of his books go to Harry Ransom Center: http://www.hrc.utexas.edu/press/releases/2010/dfw/books/

A handful of books pictured, including some heavily annotated/doodled in books.

"The collection, heavy on contemporary fiction, contains nearly all of Wallace’s friend Don DeLillo’s novels, including some pre-publication typescripts. Other titles include Malcolm Gladwell’s “Blink,” and “The Tipping Point,” and Jonathan Franzen’s “Strong Motion.” “Unfortunately,” Schwartzburg said, “there does not appear to be a copy of ‘The Corrections.’ ”

Another observation on the books now at the HRC and the books DFW owned/read:

Interesting development in the DFW collection -- "Ransom Center restricts part of Wallace archive"

It seems this catalogue has disconnected connections (rendering the MWYB list empty), is that right? If so, why?

Good spot, LolaWalser.

Another issue, unrelated: there are several broken links in the comments field. I guess it's inevitable.
