- Description or summary of the audiobook: An instant classic of American sportswriting-the tennis essays of David Foster Wallace, 'the best mind of his generation' (A. O. Scott) and 'the best tennis-writer of all time' (New York Times)Gathered for the first time in a deluxe collector's edition, here are David Foster Wallace's legendary writings on tennis, five tour-de-force pieces written with a competitor's insight and a fan's obsessive enthusiasm. Wallace brings his dazzling literary magic to the game he loved as he celebrates the other-worldly genius of Roger Federer; offers a wickedly witty disection of Tracy Austin's memoir; considers the artistry of Michael Joyce, a supremely disciplined athlete on the threshold of fame; resists the crush of commerce at the U.S. Open; and recalls his own career as a 'near-great' junior player. Whiting Award-winning writer John Jeremiah Sullivan provides an introduction.
