sometimesagreatnotion:

This is a really, really, really great compendium of DFW stuff (his writing, other’s writing on him, notes, interviews, videos, etc) that is basically perfect for anybody out there who considers themselves a DFW dummy, but would like a good place to start knowing more about this fearlessly brilliant writer and man.

Also, HE WOULD HAVE BEEN FIFTY TODAY.

The commencement speech and Federer piece alone are pantheon-type writing.
