One of the more miserable stories of the summer was the death of David Foster Wallace - probably best known as the author of Infinite Jest (1996) - at the age of 46. His passing precipitated an outpouring of tributes and memories (see Slate, Salon, the New Yorker, and the New York Times for starters). But our loss is also our gain. Harper's has made all of the stories that Wallace wrote for them freely available here.
