David Foster Wallace's debut novel, The Broom of the System, provoked comparisons to Pynchon, Coover, DeLillo, and Tom Robbins for its intellectual reach and ambition and antic spirit, and marked him as a young writer to watch. The stories in his first collection of short fiction, Girl with Curious Hair, represent an early flowering of post-postmoderism: visions of the world that reimagine reality with the eerily compelling presence of a holograph and the up-to-the-second feeling of the most advanced art.
