Dumb Question: Pynchon and Meta-Musil

[Lorentzen / Nicklaus]

"About the time the show ended, Prarie came by, Zoyd and Flesh went off looking 
for beer, and she and Justin settled down, semi-brother and sister, in front of 
the Eight O'Clock Movie, Pee-wee Herman in THE ROBERT MUSIL STORY. It was mostly 
Pee-wee talking in a foreign accent, or sitting around in front of some pieces 
of paper with some weird-looking marker pen, and the kid's attention kept 
wandering to each other". (Vineland, p. 370f.)
