Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Signifying Rappers is a fun and quirky discovery for any fan of David Foster Wallace or Hip-hop.Signifying Rappers is an old-school classic from David Foster Wallace and his friend and room-mate Mark Costello, first published in 1990, long out of print, and previously unavailable outside the USA.A paean to the golden age of Hip-Hop and the first book to consider seriously its position as a vital force in American culture, Signifying Rappers is a must-read for fans of both Wallace and hip-hop. Set against the legendary 1980s scene, it maps the bipolarities of rap and pop, rebellion and acceptance, glitz and gangsterdom, with an energy and exuberance which is as fresh today as when it was written.'Costello and Wallace's pioneering study is a dazzling performance: informative, provocative, funny, brilliantly written . . . great wit, insight and in-your-face energy' Review of Contemporary Fiction'Both a cogent explication of rap and a cutting, revealing parody of overinflated, pseudointellectual rap criticism' Seattle WeeklyDavid Foster Wallace, who died in 2008, was the author of the acclaimed novels Infinite Jest and The Broom of the System. His final novel, The Pale King, was published posthumously in 2011. He is also the author of the short-story collections Oblivion, Brief Interviews with Hideous Men and Girl with Curious Hair. His non-fiction includes several essay collections, including Both Flesh and Not, which was published in 2012, and the the full-length work Everything and More.Mark Costello is the author of two novels, including the National Book Award Finalist Big If. He lives in New York City. Set against the legendary 1980s scene, this book maps the bipolarities of rap and pop, rebellion and acceptance, glitz and gangsterdom, with an energy and exuberance which is as fresh today as when it was written.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Both Flesh and Not combines David Foster Wallace's best-loved essays with work never before published in the UK.Beloved for his brilliantly discerning eye, his verbal elasticity and his uniquely generous imagination, David Foster Wallace was heralded by critics and fans as the voice of a generation. Collected in Both Flesh and Not are fifteen essays published for the first time in book form, including writing never published before in the UK.From 'Federer Both Flesh and Not', considered by many to be his nonfiction masterpiece; to 'The (As it Were) Seminal Importance of Terminator 2,' which deftly dissects James Cameron's blockbuster; to 'Fictional Futures and the Conspicuously Young', an examination of television's effect on a new generation of writers, David Foster Wallace's writing swoops from erudite literary discussion to open-hearted engagement with the most familiar of our twentieth-century cultural references.A celebration of Wallace's great loves - for language, for precision, for meaning - and a feast of enjoyment for his fans, Both Flesh and Not is a fitting tribute to this writer who was never concerned with anything less important than what it means to be alive.Praise for Both Flesh and Not: 'Whether dwelling on the real-world implications of metaphysics [or the] pop constructions of pure maths . . . Both Flesh and Not brims with jewels of insight and expression' Independent'At their best these essays remind us of Wallace's arsenal of talents: his restless, heat-seeking reportorial eye; his ability to convey the physical or emotional truth of things with a couple of flicks of the wrist; his capacity to make leaps, from the mundane to the metaphysical, with breathtaking velocity and ardor' Michiko Kakutani, New York Times'Excellent in its entirety and just as quietly, unflinchingly soul-stirring' The Atlantic'There are times, reading his work, when you get halfway through a sentence and gasp involuntarily, and for a second you feel lucky that there was, at least for a time, someone who could make sense like no other of what it is to be a human in our era of "Total Noise"' Telegraph'One of the best writers of our time . . . If you've never read David Foster Wallace before, his masterful study of Roger Federer, included in this anthology, is an ideal place to start' US Marie Claire'A fine collection . . . you could more or less open it at random and find something to demonstrate the man's prodigious' Guardian 'The best passages are those that celebrate words and the author's relationship with them . . . It is a treasure trove for those who love the complexities of language' US TimeoutDavid Foster Wallace, who died in 2008, was the author of the acclaimed novels Infinite Jest and The Broom of the System.

Federer both flesh and not. Zweisprachige Ausgabe englisch/deutsch. Aus dem amerikanischen Englisch von Ulrich Blumenbach. 2006 traf Wallace Federer und führte ein Interview. Entstanden ist ein Text, der Federers Talent beschreibt, aber auch die scheinbaren Nebensächlichkeiten des Turniers in den Blick nimmt. Der Autor: "Praktisch jeder, der Tennis liebt und die Herrenturniere im Fernsehen verfolgt, dürfte in den letzten Jahren sogenannte Federermomente erlebt haben, Augenblicke, in denen man den jungen Schweizer spielen sieht, und plötzlich klappt einem die Kinnlade runter, man bekommt Stielaugen und produziert Geräusche, die Partner aus Nebenzimmern herbeieilen lassen, um nachzuschauen, ob alles in Ordnung ist. Federermomente fallen intensiver aus, wenn man selbst genug Tennis gespielt hat, um zu wissen, dass das, wobei man ihn gerade beobachtet hat, unmöglich ist". - Der Essay ist dem Sammelband "Der Spaß an der Sache. Alle Essays" entnommen; dort trägt er den Titel "Federer aus Fleisch und nicht". 105 Seiten, broschiert (Kiepenheuer & Witsch 2021) Mängelexemplar: Mängelexemplarstempel auf Schnitt, Stanzspuren am hinteren Einbanddeckel, evtl. mit leichter Schädigung der letzten Seiten 151 g. Sprache: de, en.
