The agents at the IRS Regional Examination Center in Peoria, Illinois, appear ordinary enough to newly arrived trainee David Foster Wallace. But as he immerses himself in a routine so tedious and repetitive that new employees receive boredom-survival training, he learns of the extraordinary variety of personalities drawn to this strange calling. And he has arrived at a moment when forces within the IRS are plotting to eliminate even what little humanity and dignity the work still has.
The Pale King remained unfinished at the time of David Foster Wallace’s death, but it is a deeply compelling and satisfying novel, hilarious and fearless and as original as anything Wallace ever undertook. It grapples directly with ultimate questions—questions of life’s meaning and of the value of work and society—through characters imagined with the interior force and generosity that were Wallace’s unique gifts. Along the way it suggests a new idea of heroism and commands infinite respect for one of the most daring writers of our time.
_____________________________________
This novel, described by a reviewer as a “rollicking postmodern romp,” was still unfinished when author David Foster Wallace (Infinite Jest) died prematurely in 2008. Pieced together by an editor, this “long thing,” as he habitually described it, is a work to which Wallace had returned habitually for more than a decade. Its tale of modern day men in gray flannel suits is told with the consummate humor and biting irony that became its author’s trademark. A fascinating final document from one of the most influential American novelists of recent years.
