Infinite Jest Audiobook (2024) read by Sean Pratt

After that recent post about whether Hal was deliberately being unresponsive in the Admissions Interview (Year of Glad), I decided to bite the proverbial bullet and re-"read" IJ.

I bought the audiobook last year after (IIRC) the new version was released. It is unbelievably good. Pratt is a fantastic narrator who, for example, absolutely nails that borderline-politically-incorrect chapter (with that accent) and JOI's filmography. The latter had me grinning just this morning, and is so much more enjoyable (for me, personally) to hear read, than to parse (and skim) myself.

Pratt's intonation is just so much better than the voice in my head. (Of which there is only one, just in case you were worried.) Highly recommend.
