The exterior of the paperback edition is in Very Good condition, with clean, illustrated covers with no creases, mild surface wear, strong title on a concave spine, light soiling to the page blocks, a tight binding with no creases, rubbed spine ends, mild edge wear and lightly rounded corners. The interior of the book is in Very Good condition with the ghost of an erased price on the half title page. There are also some some dings to the page points.

Equal parts philosophical quest and screwball comedy, Infinite Jest bends every rule of fiction without sacrificing for a moment its own entertainment value. It is an exuberant, uniquely American exploration of the passions that make us human – and one of those rare books that renew the idea of what a novel can do.
Ships promptly in a corrugated mailer with the book wrapped in both craft paper and multiple layers of bubble wrap.
