Apologies to PPadgett: I meant to post this to PYNCHON-L but my
surly mailer was feisty.
For WACKY COCONUTS try:
George Formby-a ukelele playing brit who may have made an appearance in
GR. Very popular in the USSR in WWII.
Old pop hawaiian tunes from the 20's-40s (perhaps earlier) i.e.
I WANT TO GO BACK TO MY LITTLE GRASS SHACK (IN KEALAKALUA, HAWAII)
"I'm just a homesick island boy, I want to get back to my fish and poi"
And I've found that VINELAND is quite good upon my second reading of it.
Two thirds done.....
