About This Novel
"The Broom of the System" is the debut novel written by David Foster Wallace when he was 25 years old. His literary talent is clearly evident, and it has become a rare great novel that is both loved by readers and respected by opponents. Wallace wrote only a small number of novels throughout his life, but he always occupied an important position in the literary world. The male protagonist of the novel is an intellectual who has low self-esteem due to his short genitals, which has caused a series of psychological problems. He fell madly in love with a girl 18 years younger than him. Although this girl is the heir to the family business, she works as a front desk operator with a very low salary because she also has unspeakable psychological problems. There is almost no "normal person" in the conventional sense in the story. Everyone alive has their own obstacles that they cannot overcome, just like the real world we live in, surrounded by emotions, drugs and sinking... As humans, how should they get along with this complex world?
