Bret Easton Ellis on David Foster Wallace

lindsaykap:

sagatrope:

Question: David Foster Wallace – as an American writer, what is your opinion now that he has died?

Answer: Is it too soon? It’s too soon right? Well i don’t rate him. The journalism is pedestrian, the stories scattered and full of that Mid-Western faux-sentimentality and Infinite Jest is unreadable. His life story and his battle with depression however is really quite touching…

OH MY GOD, BRET EASTON ELLIS, JUST DIE IN A FIRE ALREADY.

bret, i thought you were alright because i’m kind of into american psycho, and the informers was pretty good too, but goddamnit infinite jest is one of the greatest thing’s i’ve ever read.

    I knew I didn’t like this guy. I’m not DFW fan, but I always thought Bret Easton Ellis was a jerk.
