La muerte de David Foster Wallace
2008-09-16 00:06:00 Por alguna extraña razón en esta sociedad en la que reina la inmediatez, la noticia ha llegado con un retardo de varios días a los medios de comunicación, y sin embargo basta con mirar las actualizaciones de la red, para comprobar que se ha extendido como la pólvora entre los blogs que tienen una cierta consciencia de tipo cultural: el escritor David Foster Wallace apareció ahorcado en la noche del viernes, ante los asombrados ojos de su mujer.¿Quién era David Foster Wallace? Pues sin duda era una de las mayores promesas de la escritura norteamericana. Encuadrado dentro de ese grupo que los americanos llamaban la ?Next Generation?, Wallace tenía una visión global de la sociedad americana, y sus textos llenos de ironía plasmaban los vicios y virtudes de esta sociedad del salvaje liberalismo, donde el auténtico rey es, sin duda, la televisión.Tampoco puedo hablar mucho más, porque aunque tengo en mi biblioteca las más de mil páginas de La broma infinita -como otros guardan el Ulises d...

David Foster Wallace
2008-09-14 18:16:00 The news of Wallace's death--apparently a suicide--has just floored me. By sheer coincidence I had just bought a remaindered copy of his most recent essay collection, Consider the Lobster, and was looking forward to reading it when I wanted/needed to get away from sabbatical stuff. What better way to honor an author you admire, especially on the occasion of his death, than by reading his work?

Josephine Foster - This Coming Gladness
2008-08-09 21:10:00 She is one of the finest artists to have emerged from the so-called freak-folk boom of a few years back. From layering her vibrating saw blade of a voice to accompanying it with kazoo, dulcimer, harp, homemade percussion, and, at the center, her dry and spindly acoustic guitar, Josephine Foster continues to write beautiful songs, and on this, her third full-length, doesn’t sound remotely like an artist tied to a particular fad. Regardless of its context, Foster’s voice always sounds as if it’s emerging from some dusty, wartime 78pm vinyl, with an outgoing, operatic tone probably best described as “witchy”. Foster has tried out various styles of arrangement of her peculiar songcraft over the years, and set into a trio format (with drums supplied by the always excellent Alex Nielson and lead guitar from Victor Herrero) this album probably draws comparison’s with the more fleshed out sounds of her A Wolf In Sheep’s Clothing album or the Born He...
