I don't. And how about Pynchon as well? I'm reminded of McHoul and Wills'
reference in Writing Pynchon to the phrase in The Introduction to Slow
Learner "almost but not quite me." I believe McH and W devote a whole
chapter to the fictionality aspects of The Introduction. Of course this is
pure litcrit but that's OK on occasion (it sez here in fine print).
