At my wife's urging (she's an avid tennis player; I'm not), I'm reading David Foster Wallace's String Theory (= On Tennis: Five Essays). Why am I not surprised that the prose is jawdroppingly brilliant? But as sports writing, it is now far-and-away my all-time favorite. Even if you're not a tennis fan, download it at Amazon as On Tennis for 5 bucks and you'll have a mesmerizing evening.
