Below: cheat sheets of DF Wallace’s commonly used abreviations. His non-fiction, interviews, and orations demand inclusion to that very, very short list of authors considered masters.
Reading the prose sucks air right out of reader’s lungs. DFW’s tonal style epitomizes what it is to read an unabshedly unique & resounding narrative voice.
At times accented by genuine humor, the prose can continually compell an audience to spectate the words. The conversational timber affected the atmospheric milieu comprising interactions amongst reader, author, book & words, such that large quantaties of information, data, and, simply, learning, are inputted to and registered by the reader exceptionally quickly and concisely. This holds especially true when compared to the quantity of time the prose (particularly those educational, academic, and scholarly) of others would require to input an equal amount of data or information into a reader.
Wallace packs the most punch of those authors currently and previously producing nonfiction prose able to put as much info as possible, about a really technical & specialized way of knowing the world into the consciousness of a self interested in that particular knowledgspace. However it is, ,simultaneously, a self or an audience who/m appear incapable or unwilling to invest the hefty time costs required to merely learn the basics of a field they’re otherwise curious about
