yes sir.


and, altogether, not very good?


right again. It's bad, and who the hell would read it
again unless one were trying to figure out something
the brilliant fiction writer has to say under the rose?

The Sloth essay is pretty damn good. Agree?

The Intro to SL is also good, very honest and down
to earth. Useful, not for the abusive critic, but
for the young fiction writer. I think, so I've heard,
Pynchon hates critics, but loves artists, even if they
suck, as long as they are fresh.
