In the wake of David Foster Wallace's passing, I wondered which of his books were translated into Japanese.  Strangely enough, it is a book on race and rap music that he co-wrote with Mark Costello: ラップという現象.

In lieu of that, if you haven't read his commencement speech at Kenyon, it's a great way to get into Wallace.

EDIT: I should also add...

and Consider the Lobster (PDF) from Gourmet Magazine and Michiko Kakutani's obituary in the NY Times: Exuberant Riffs on a Land Run Amok.
