Bret Easton Ellis on David Foster Wallace

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.
