Task: Question Answering
Input (English): Context: Sure , DFW made you work -- the footnotes , the endnotes , the digressions and philosophical asides , the brain - stretching vocabulary and sentence structure -- but it was totally worth it . You feel smarter after you read his writing , you feel you ' ve been somewhere you did n't even know existed , like you ' ve peeked through all these oddly - shaped windows in weird buildings and seen all the fascinating things happening right on the other side of the glass . DFW never yanked your chain or threw stuff in just to make himself look clever -- he really was the genuine article . 
Question: Why does the narrator think DFW stands out ?
Output (English): DFW was not pompous .
