"Infinite Jest" by D. F. Wallace

Post by duszek »

The book explains the philosophy behind the AA.
It seems to work for those who tried it.

There are also Narcotics Anonymous.
Why not then: Overweight Anonymous ( = Weight Watchers ?)
Hypocrites Anonymous
Depressives Anonynous
Freaks Anonymous

etc.

Any thoughts ?

They could try honestly to explain why lying has become compulsive in their case.
And if they slipped into lying again the audience would not be able to IDENTIFY with them. This would bring them back on the right track.
