(Putting on my Editor cap....)
I was wondering if anyone on the Pynchon List would welcome the
chance to write a few book reviews for the site I edit, The Modern
Word.
http://www.TheModernWord.com
I am putting together the next few "Spiral-Bound" newsletters, and
there are a few books I would love to feature -- Salman Rushdie's
"Fury," Mario Vargas Llosa's "The Feast of the Goat," John Barth's
"Coming Soon!!!", Eco's "Five Moral Pieces," and DeLillo's "Pafko at
the Wall" are especially up for grabs. I ask that any review be
basically an informed and critically intelligent work, but I welcome
any personal style or insights you'd have to bring. (It should be
about the length and depth of the average newspaper review.)
Although I cannot offer any compensation, your review would go out to
thousands of subscribers and be featured on the main page of the
site, which gets 110,000 visitors each month. I will also gladly
include your email address and any links to a Web site you might wish
to highlight.
If anyone is interested, please feel free to visit the "submissions"
area for details, and please write me off-list.

If I have said anything to the contrary I was mistaken.
If I say anything to the contrary again I shall be mistaken again.
Unless I am mistaken now. Into the dossier with it in any case,
in support of whatever thesis you fancy.
