I really enjoyed the way you explored both the effects of the zeitgeist as pushed through different forms of media and your newfound interest in tennis. You made some excellent points, which really made me think.
And just incase your interested the writer David Foster Wallace wrote 5 or so great essays on tennis for different magazines like the rolling stone etc., and all the essays were later compiled into a book called “String Theory” if you wanted to check it out.
Thanks for your kind comments, Michael! It's funny, you're the second person now to recommend me String Theory. I read Consider the Lobster earlier this year. He's too damn good, DFW!
Yeah DFW is one of my favourite writers. I especially like his non-fiction pieces. ‘A supposedly fun thing I’ll never do again’ is a hilarious essay he wrote about going on a cruise ship. I can’t recommend that highly enough.
This was such a great piece Nicole!
