  • In anticipation, I’ve been following the dispatches from Infinite Boston: real-world approximations of the settings in Wallace’s Infinite Jest. [2 of 3]
 
  • And in true nerd fashion, I’ll pore over these posters for fictional films mentioned in IJ, sometimes while wearing my Eschaton tee by Jeanette Levy. [3 of 3]
 
  • Images (in order): cover of Every Love Story Is a Ghost Story, by D.T. Max; photo via Infinite Boston; photo by Jeanette Levy via Poor Yorick Entertainment.
