11/21/96 Pynchon List New York Meeting

[RICHARD ROMEO]

On the other side of Chris was RICHARD ROMEO, a square-jawed hunk of

manhood whose 6'4" frame was more than adequate to handle the copies of

Gravity's Rainbow, V., Ulysses, Finnegan's Wake, Infinite Jest, and The

Complete Balzac that he apparently always carries with him.

Hey dave,  you forgot Terra Nostra, The Recognitions, and my own 
autographed copy of Things That Could Happen In European Politics, which 
a friend of the family, let me borrow.  Quite a good chap, though he has 
he rather peculiar habit of wearing brown lipstick. 

Gotta exercise my librarian butt somehow.
