"Rolling Stone" reporter David went to interview best-selling author Wallace, went deep into his life, went shopping with him at the supermarket, accompanied him to radio interviews, went to book sales with him, stayed in his guest room, accompanied him He walks the dog together, and more often the two are on the road. In this process, it is the exploration of chat mode. The mutual testing, collision and mutual understanding of two strange men. David envied Wallace's success, and Wallace envied David's ease in front of women. Two similar souls, in a seemingly illogical dialogue, interpret the life theme of postmodern life: the extreme pain of loneliness, the fear of waiting for Godot-like nothingness. No one can deviate from the fact that life's journey will come to an end. Wallace doesn't have the horrible stories that people speculate. He was lonely, depressed, he drank heavily, only to find that alcohol would not solve his problems. His only addiction is watching TV, but TV hinders communication with people. "You'll never understand how hard we work to get ourselves interested in life." Wallace finally chose suicide to end his life. And David also understands that when the two of them have a sincere dialogue together, it is the most beautiful moment when they are not alone. Reading can keep us from being alone.
