Sad, I couldn't find a non-AP article about DFW's death in any local newspaper. He is arguably the most important writer of our generation.
That's a nice, subtle tribute to Wallace there, Brock. (Refreshingly no irony or snark intended.)
There was an obit in the LA Times and the NY Times.
It has been a very sad weekend.
"... all the best young men lie under the earth."
He will be very missed.
I didn't realize the LA or NY Times were local newspapers. At least the Chronicle printed something today.
They are very nice shoes.
