An instant classic of American sportswriting--the tennis essays of David Foster Wallace, the best mind of his generation (A.
Scott) and the best tennis-writer of all time ( New York Times ) Gathered for the first time in a deluxe collectors edition, here are David Foster Wallaces legendary writings on tennis, five tour-de-force pieces written with a competitors insight and a fans obsessive enthusiasm.
Wallace brings his dazzling literary magic to the game he loved as he celebrates the other-worldly genius of Roger Federer; offers a wickedly witty disection of Tracy Austins memoir; considers the artistry of Michael Joyce, a supremely disciplined athlete on the threshold of fame; resists the crush of commerce at the U.
Open; and recalls his own career as a near-great junior player.
Whiting Award-winning writer John Jeremiah Sullivan provides an introduction.
