Hmmm. Does the list's willingness to abbreviate Wallace's name (as we
don't Gaddis's or DeLillo's, for example) indicate that he has
accomplished his clandestine mission of ingratiating himself amongst us as
a Pynchon wannabe, a half-assed doppelganger? Horrors! I agree with Max.
This must be stopped.
