There is no relation; but in reference to good modern authors, Lee
Siegel has written a book called "Love in a Dead Language" which is
pretty cool, and thoroughly "postmodern."
You can find more details and some reviews at:

By the way, for you New York City Pynchoners, St. Mark's Books has
several hardcover copies of "Infinite Jest" available for $8. I think
that's about $0.74142724745 per page.
