Edited version of the ZDFmediatek interview with David Foster Wallace, 2003. This version offers David Foster Wallace’s ideas, without repetitions, long pauses, interviewer’s comments. Although some cuts may appear rough, there is no attempt at editorial bias or content manipulation. Mr. Wallace’s archives (books in his library, notes, and writings) have been recently acquired by the Harry Ransom Center at the University of Texas Austin.
