I love this David Foster Wallace interview with German TV.
DFW describes why he started to write Infinite Jest. He said he wanted to write a book about sadness. He said he started the project after some people who he knew around his age had committed suicide. And he said about them it was obvious something was going.
To be far this man was a genius. I think noone in my environment knew dick before I almost drunk the SN. The self-help group, my family, friends who had no information....I think noone would have expected it to be then. I even gave a party shortly before almost killing myself. I wanted that my friends associate with me good memories.
Two of my friends knew it though because I told them it.
Afterwards I told my mom, grandma and my self-help group a ridiculous lie why the police came and all that stuff. And I think noone questioned it. They all bought it.
I don't think they will see it coming when I ctb. But to me it is so fucking obvious for me.
