Who? Me? Never!
But I wish Doug would say what especially he finds interesting about it.
I've never meant to keep anyone from reading any essay in PN but I must
admit that I was a little bit disappointed by this one.

I can only recommend anybody who is really interested in Pynchon's
literature to subscribe to PN. The work John Krafft, Bernard Duyfhuizen and
Khachig Tololyan are doing by getting together all this cannot be praised
high enough.
