Various Snippages

<Robot>
 	_Sabbath's Theatre_, Roth's latest,  is very good.
 	Isn't it about time that wired put itself in the tired column?
 Past time, actually.
<Henry>
        >Yeah! I also think a lot of the whole Zuckerman series.

Moi:
        His really new one _American Pastoral_  (due may 12, 1997) has a
Zuckerman as narratorm and is excellent.


<Then Tom on Paranoia>
        Paranoia, like pornography, is one of many devices TRP uses.
        I don't think there's a subtext that paranoids "get" any better
        than any other reader. Nor is there a porno subtext, u.s.b.

Moi:
        Thats what we want you to believe.

        Although not an academic, but kind of curious, I might head to Kentucky
for a while in February around the 20th. Just to keep an eye on The Situation.

                        Later,

                                Mike
