Schrecklich amüsant - aber in Zukunft ohne mich

Wallace's insights felt both personal and critical of society. I wonder what motivated him to focus on these topics in such a detailed way.

The tone can be light and funny but also painfully honest. It made me think about how humor can serve as a shield for uncomfortable truths.

His detailed, often self-deprecating prose adds layers to the message. I'm curious whether the style enhances or distracts from the critique.
