Three best novels of the 1990s

[Hartwin Gebhardt]

Richard Romeo sez:
 
> 1. Infinite Jest

boring, overlong crap - not half the imagination of even a TRP short story;
there ain't no people in it, but then, I didn't manage to finish it, so
maybe I shouldn't talk


> 2. Underworld

an overlong, blown up short story - entertaining in part, but nowhere near
as good as, say, White Noise, which is a kind of low-brow version of
Pynchon's worst novel, COL49

> 3.  Mason & Dixon

well now - here we have something else entirely; there is more imagination,
intelligence and simply good writing (not to mention sheer _work_) in a page
of M&D than in the other two put together

> Yes, in that order.
