I think the article in RS last month was so honest. One of the best tributes ever. DFW death by hanging, I believe, was not something selfish, it was desperation. Perhaps a mind cannot take an MAOI like Nardil for twenty years and then wean off it without disastrous results. At the time of his death he was married to a great gal, and had a job he loved, money, super-cool parents, dogs that he rescued.. He always had many friends. I am convinced that nardil kept him alive and killed him...RIP

The brand new issue of Rolling Stone (the one with President Obama on the cover) has a substantial, insightful, and of course ultimately heartbreaking piece on David Foster Wallace. Fascinating whether you read his work or not.

Wow, the interview with Wallace in here is really good. I've never seen the charlie rose show that I can remember, but he interviewed incredibly. Also, Wallace says some great stuff in this too. I didn't watch the other interviews, but I don't doubt the interviewees are interesting people too.

David Foster Wallace was a kindred spirit; we should all be sad that he suffered so much, just as we should be and compassionate about anyone in any kind of pain; I am incredibly sad that he is no longer around to observe and explain this world to us. He was brilliant, self-deprecating, and generous with his talent, which we were so lucky he shared with us. I wish there was more to come... I wish there was a different way to end the pain.

This guy wrote and judged himself on what he wrote, and on much tougher terms than anyone else. We should follow and judge him by his writing. The suicide is sad and he will be missed. I still respect his search and his work. RIP DFW
