Hilarious, yes, extreme we might say, satire no doubt, but
deadly serious too. 
Sure, a sendup of social psychology, the sick german mind in
the fields maturbating, but we have history to consider,
it's no joke, Pokler in the fields masturbating, Pokler in
the test fields paranoid, funny, but even with Pynchon's
"history" (V.)
we have Weissmann and Rilke and Mondaugen's Story, no joke.
