An instant classic of American sportswritingthe tennis essays of David Foster Wallace, the best mind of his generation (A. O. Scott) and the best tenniswriter 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 tourdeforce 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 otherworldly 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 'neargreat' junior player.Whiting Awardwinning writer John Jeremiah Sullivan provides an introduction.
