en-wikipedia-org-8106		Brief Interviews with Hideous Men - Wikipedia			.html	text/html	1036	140	71	Brief Interviews with Hideous Men is a critically acclaimed short story collection by American writer David Foster Wallace, first published in 1999 by Little, Brown. The 23 metafictional pieces in the collection are "difficult to categorise, roaming wilfully across the boundaries of genres and inventing new ones", which one story ("Octet") appears to "self-mockingly acknowledg[e]".[1] Four of the stories are entitled "Brief Interviews with Hideous Men" and consist of numbered sections of varying length that are presented as transcripts of interviews with male subjects. John Krasinski adapted and directed a 2009 film version of the "Brief Interviews" stories. In August 2012 British artists Andy Holden and David Raymond Conroy presented a stage adaptation of the book at the ICA, London,[4] which later toured to Arnolfini, Bristol.[5] The production adapted four of the interviews and one short story using a variety of multimedia techniques, and contained new music by the Grubby Mitts.	./cache/en-wikipedia-org-8106.html	./txt/en-wikipedia-org-8106.txt
