“The supposedly fun thing is going on an ocean cruise, and like Wallace, the idea excites me as much as going to a weeklong, tool stamping industry conference. It's a sadly funny and poignant essay written from an outside-the-loop guy who found the whole cruise affair rather squalid in a spotless kind of way. It was required reading for an MFA lecture, and I enjoyed the entire book of essays. Plus, the cover art is just outstanding...the picture of David on the back is also nice to look at.”
