I just read/skimmed consider the lobster, is it supposed to be exemplary? Maybe there's some irony that I'm not appreciating but I'm not impressed.

- kbob 8y agoI don't think you can skim DFW. Ne says as much in the linked interview: "I think the sort of work I do falls into an area of American fiction that, yes, that is accessible, but that is designed for people who really like to read and understand reading to be a discipline and to require a certain amount of work." I can't even skim that sentence.
