Steven M. Cahn and Maureen Eckhert have here assembled a very fine collection of essays on philosophical themes in the work of the acclaimed novelist David Foster Wallace, whose philosophical talents are only just being recognized. Philosophers interested in the topic of 'fatalism' should especially take note, as well as those interested in Wallace's work more generally. -- Patrick Todd, University of Edinburgh In the last decade, Wallace scholarship has often confined itself to very narrow corridors, covering and re-covering excursions that have become increasingly familiar. This collection opens up a new wing of the critical mansion, building up not only our understanding of Wallace's important early engagement with Taylor, but also pressing his investigations toward lively new dialogues with John McFarlane, David Lewis, Archilochus, Richard Rorty, and many others. -- Stephen J. Burn, University of Glasgow asdf Library Journal
