An instant classic of American sportswriting—the tennis essays of David Foster Wallace, “the best mind of his generation” (A. O. Scott) and “the best tennis-writer of all time” (New York Times)
Gathered for the first time in a deluxe collector's edition, here are David Foster Wallace's legendary writings on tennis, five tour-de-force pieces written with a competitor's insight and a fan's 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 Austin's memoir; considers the artistry of Michael Joyce, a supremely disciplined athlete on the threshold of fame; resists the crush of commerce at the U.S. Open; and recalls his own career as a "near-great" junior player.
Whiting Award-winning writer John Jeremiah Sullivan provides an introduction.
David Foster Wallace (1962–2008) was born in Ithaca, New York, in 1962 and raised in Champaign-Urbana, Illinois, where in his teens he was a regionally ranked junior tennis player. His works include Infinite Jest, Girl with Curious Hair, Brief Interviews with Hideous Men, Oblivion, A Supposedly Fun Thing I’ll Never Do Again, and Consider the Lobster. His final novel, The Pale King, was posthumously published in 2011.

评分 评分一如既往表白DFW!!!作为一个曾经成功的年轻网球运动员DFW的视觉是独特的!引用另一位友邻的的短评:“距离华莱士逝世已经快有十年,在这十年里终究没人能像费德勒一样打球。我们也不知道下一个十年,是否会有另一个作家像华莱士一样写出如此精妙的网球文章。”
评分网球迷不可错过的集子,尤其是第二、三、五篇。华莱士的视角不同于一般体育记者,通过家乡网球场、球员传记、资格赛球员、公开赛赞助以及史上最佳球员这几个点,他写下的并非单纯歌颂或批判:华莱士从方方面面剖析的是这项运动的true essence. 既有对网球艺术性、力量、时机、步伐的精准分析,也有对其间运动之残酷——甚至是人生之残酷的洞察。因为运动员短暂的职业生涯,又未尝不是人生的缩影?如果说06年纽时那篇写费德勒已经足够出名,写桑普拉斯和菲利普西斯这一篇也非常令人惊叹……还有谁会用政体来形容两名球员的风格呢?这本集子读到最后甚至有些伤感,距离华莱士逝世已经快有十年,在这十年里终究没人能像费德勒一样打球。我们也不知道下一个十年,是否会有另一个作家像华莱士一样写出如此精妙的网球文章。
评分散文可以写的这么牛逼!网球迷跪着看完了这本书!
