Thoroughly postmodern Pynchon

[Doug Millison]

My copy of V. has a finite number of words and pages. How does that
translate into "a never-ending chain
of signifiers"? Unless maybe this author is talking about interpretations of
the words Pynchon writes, a critic spinning off new signifiers from the text
that Pynchon provides.


" However, the story, whose main
aim is the quest for the lady V., finally dissolves in a never-ending chain
of signifiers that always escapes an ultimate categorical meaning."
