讲述了畅销书《无尽的玩笑》作者大卫·福斯特·华莱士和《滚石》杂志记者一同踏上新书全国宣传之旅过程中发生的故事。在为期五天的公路旅行中,华莱士讨论了从孤独到哲学,从电视到现代诗歌到爱情,当然还有写作的一切。滚石记者和大卫·华莱士的公路之旅,这本是两个作家的对话,却完全不掉书袋,从很普通人的角度入手,慢慢深入。在采访过程中,他们谈人生、文学、名气、矛盾,一起经历了欢声笑语,也不经意将缺点暴露在对方面前,甚至为此发生争执。旅程结束后,采访并没有发表,利普斯基将录音封存在抽屉之中。之后,两人再没有见面。直到2008年戴维·福斯特·华莱士自杀后,利普斯基才出版回忆录,而一出版,则轰动文坛,再次引起了美国华莱士效应。
