Man Reading Pynchon On Bus Takes Pains To Make Cover Visible

PHILADELPHIA-- According to riders on the eastbound C bus, John Bolen, 
23, made a conscious effort Monday to make the cover of Thomas Pynchon's 
The Crying Of Lot 49 visible to all on board. "Instead of resting the 
book on his lap or on the seat in front of him, he was holding it up in 
this really awkward, uncomfortable-looking way," rider Caryn Little said. 
"Then, every so often, he'd glance around to see if anyone was noticing 
what he was reading." Bolen vehemently denied the Pynchon-flaunting 
charges, insisting that "the light was bad" on the bus.

Cheers,
David
