Short Stories Editorial Review
"Girl With Curious Hair" by David Foster Wallace is a collection of short stories that seems to polarize readers. Some find it highly enjoyable, while others feel it falls short. For fans of Wallace's writing style, this collection is a satisfying read. The stories provide a similar level of satisfaction as his longer novels, and there are glimpses of the ideas he would later explore in his work. However, for those who prefer a more direct and distinct plot trajectory, these stories may not be enjoyable. The collection has been described as weird and bizarre, with some readers finding it too outlandish to even describe. The variety of stories may not appeal to everyone, and some readers may feel that the short stories come off as insincere or like the writer is more concerned with trolling literature than writing a good story. One story that receives praise is "Little Expressionless Animals," which is described as lovely and stands out from the rest of the collection. Overall, "Girl With Curious Hair" is a book that seems to attract both devoted fans of David Foster Wallace and readers who find it too unconventional for their taste.
