Happy new year! I'm back from my hols and have a backlog of stuff (some that I posted to my twitter feed) to place here over the next few days - some longer pieces too.
Just in, there's a review of All Things Shining: Reading the Western Classics to Find Meaning in a Secular Age over at the New York Times, its second chapter is devoted to DFW, David Foster Wallace's Nihilism. Looks interesting.
[Thanks @jakebouma and @WebsterBull]

Adam S. Miller takes a similar view here: http://theotherjournal.com/churchandpomo/2011/12/02/all-things-shining-maps-on-fire/
but he takes a very critical view not just of the chapter on Wallace but of the whole project of the book.
I try to reconcile both our view here: http://terenceblake.wordpress.com/2013/11/18/grace-shining-and-individuation-adam-miller-hubert-dreyfus-and-sean-kelly-on-david-foster-wallace/
