Just thought I'd draw attention to a review of Siegel's _Lineland_, to be
found at:
http://www.rpg.net/quail/libyrinth/pynchon.lineland.html
Review by Laurence Daw, the main contributor to "Spermatikos Logos," the
Pynchon corner of the 'Libyrinth' web project. I don't expect any of it to
make it into the press kit. Some excerpts:
> Quite simply put, large parts
> of Lineland are self-serving and narcissistic in the
> extreme.
[snip]
>Siegel's comments about the significance of desktop
> publishing in an age of "Shocked" Internet sites, Pentium
> multi-media home computer systems, cheap colour flat-bed
> scanners, etc., etc., are, frankly, boring, and certainly
> not immune to his constant propensity for
> self-aggrandizement.
You get the picture ...
Cheers,
Paul
