Podcast: All Of It with Alison StewartPublished On: Tue Feb 10 2026
Description: The epic and challenging novel Infinite Jest by David Foster Wallace turns 30 this month. It's a novel that has become a kind of statement piece.

Author Hermione Hoby discusses her piece in The New Yorker, "'Infinite Jest' Has Turned Thirty. Have We Forgotten How to Read It?" Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
