The Broom of the System

"Most really pretty girls have pretty ugly feet,

and so does Mindy Metalman,

Lenore notices all of a sudden."

The Broom of the System by David Foster Wallace, was published

in 1987. Wallace was born on February 21, 1962. He was an American novelist,

short story writer, essayist, and a professor of Creative Writing.

He hung himself on September 12, 2008.

All I understood from the summary honestly, was that Lenore's great

grandmother disappeared from the nursing home, and that Lenore

is weird and is having an affair with the boss. The book is supposed to

be really funny though. I don't know if I would like it, but it's a hit or miss

type of thing, so I would like to read it some day.
